Nusa Penida is part of Klungkung Regency and has long been a peripheral fishing and ritual center in Balinese culture, with sacred sites scattered around the island.
Conservation
Visitor flows stress fragile coastal vegetation and coral; stick to marked paths, avoid removing shells, and use reef-safe sunscreen when swimming.

Start early
Depart with the first fast-boat to avoid midday heat and large crowds at Kelingking and Diamond Beach.
Bring cash and small change
Many warungs and toilets on the island are cash-only—carry rupiah for food, drinks, and entrance fees.
Wear grippy footwear
Expect steep, uneven staircases and loose rock; closed-toe shoes with good traction reduce slip risk.
Hydrate and protect from sun
Bring at least 2 liters of water, a hat and SPF; shade is scarce at viewpoints and beaches are exposed.
Sturdy day shoes
Closed-toe, grippy shoes handle stairs and rocky viewpoints better than sandals.
Sun protection (hat & SPF)
Essential under equatorial sun, especially on exposed cliffs and beaches.
