Exploring Nusa Penida? My guide to Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees covers the best beaches, snorkeling, parking costs, and practical travel tips. (CLICK HERE)

Nusa Penida is one of the most striking islands near Bali. Dramatic cliffs, turquoise water, natural pools and beaches that look unreal in photos. Once you get there, you realize there’s a lot to see, and the island is bigger than most first-timers expect. This guide covers the Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees you’ll run into, so you know what to see and what to budget for.

I explored the island on a scooter and visited Kelingking Beach, Diamond Beach, Tembeling Beach and Forest, Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong. I also went snorkeling. So this is a mix of what I saw myself and the practical stuff that will save you money and hassle.

Here’s what I’ll cover:

Kelingking Beach
Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong
Diamond Beach
Tembeling Beach and Forest
Snorkeling around Nusa Penida
What each place costs

This isn’t a full Nusa Penida travel guide. It’s the top things to do in Nusa Penida that I actually visited, plus what you’ll pay at each one. If you only read one thing before you go, make it the section on Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees, because the costs add up faster than you’d think.

Nusa Penida Attractions and Entry Fees: What to Know Before You Go

Before the individual places, it helps to know how the charges work. Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees fall into four kinds of cost on this island:

The island-wide tourism levy
Individual attraction entrance fees
Parking
Extras and activities

Some places are public attractions with a set ticket. Others are privately run experiences with their own pricing, and that’s why the Nusa Penida entrance fees don’t follow one rule across the island.

Nusa Penida Island Entry Levy

Klungkung Regency introduced a separate tourism levy for the island. From 1 September 2026 the rates are:

Visitor	Island levy
Adult foreign visitor	IDR 25,000
Child aged 4–13	IDR 15,000

It’s a one-time charge for eligible foreign visitors, and it’s separate from the attraction tickets, which apply to domestic and foreign visitors at the places that charge them. Paying the levy doesn’t get you into Kelingking or anywhere else.

Check the current payment arrangements before you travel, because the way the levy is collected has been moving toward electronic payment (more on that below).

Do You Have to Pay Separately at Each Attraction?

Yes. The island levy doesn’t cover individual attractions, so your overall sightseeing budget needs to include both. Expect:

Individual attraction tickets
Shared tickets for nearby attractions, like the one for Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong. Don’t pay for those twice.
Parking, which is separate from the ticket.
Optional extras, like photo spots.

Ticketing is also shifting to electronic payment, so read the payment section in the tips before you go.

West Nusa Penida: Famous Cliffs and Natural Attractions

The west side has several of the island’s best-known coastal sights, and the costs are easy to work out here because the places sit close together. Kelingking Beach, Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong all sit in this part of the island, so they’re easy to group together.

Kelingking Beach

Kelingking is the one everyone has seen on Instagram, and it’s the most recognizable of all the Nusa Penida attractions. A limestone headland shaped like a T-Rex juts out into the sea, with turquoise water and a small beach below. The viewpoint at the top is where most people take their photos.

Seeing it in person is a different thing from seeing it on a screen. The cliffs drop away, the colors of the water change, and it’s the kind of place where you just stand and stare for a while. The viewpoint on its own is worth the visit, even if you never go down to the beach.

The path down to the beach is steep and physically demanding. Check the weather and the trail conditions before you decide. Swimming here has been restricted by the authorities because of dangerous waves, so don’t treat calm-looking water as permission. Follow the signs and any lifeguard or staff instructions.

Kelingking Beach entry fee and extra costs:

Adults: IDR 25,000
Children aged 4–13: IDR 15,000
Parking is charged separately, for scooters and for cars

That’s the Kelingking Beach entry fee at the time of writing. Rates can change, so check at the gate.

Broken Beach

Broken Beach, also called Pasih Uug, is a natural rock arch over a circular cove of seawater. The sea comes in under the arch, and the cliffs wrap around it. You walk around the viewpoint to see it from different sides, and it’s an unusual shape for a coastline.

What stood out to me was how the whole thing looks like part of the cliff has simply collapsed in on itself. It’s a quick stop compared to Kelingking, but a great place for photos.

Broken Beach entry fee and extra costs:

A combined ticket covers Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong: IDR 25,000 for adults and IDR 15,000 for children aged 4–13
Parking is separate

Don’t count that combined ticket twice. You pay once for both places.

Angel’s Billabong

Angel’s Billabong is a natural pool made by seawater between the coastal rocks. It’s right next to Broken Beach, so you can see both in one stop. The water is clear and the color changes with the light, and it faces the ocean, with rock formations all around.

It’s popular for photos, but treat it with respect. Waves and sudden swells can surge into the pool without much warning. Swimming at Angel’s Billabong has been restricted by the authorities, so don’t get in the pool even when it looks calm. Follow the signs and local instructions, and stay away from exposed edges when the sea is rough.

Angel’s Billabong entry fee and extra costs:

It shares the combined ticket with Broken Beach, so there’s nothing extra to pay at the gate for the second place

East Nusa Penida: Beautiful Beaches and Coastal Views

The east side is known for limestone formations, beaches and coastal scenery. It’s a long ride from the west side, so plan for that.

Diamond Beach

Diamond Beach is the one I’d call the postcard beach of the island. White sand, turquoise water and big limestone cliffs on both sides. There’s a viewpoint from above, and a staircase built into the cliff that leads down to the sand.

The stairs are steep, so wear proper shoes. The waves here are dangerous and swimming at Diamond Beach has been restricted by the authorities, so stay out of the water and follow the signs and any lifeguard or staff instructions.

Diamond Beach entry fee and extra costs:

The entry setup for Diamond Beach has changed over time, so check the arrangement when you get there. A combined Diamond Beach and Atuh Beach ticket was listed at IDR 60,000 per person as of September 2026.

Beyond the ticket, think about:

Parking
Optional photo charges
Extras like swings, where they’re offered

I haven’t visited Atuh Beach myself, so I can’t tell you what it’s like.

Tembeling Beach and Forest: A Different Side of Nusa Penida

Tembeling is the one that doesn’t look like the others. It’s more about nature than viewpoints: a forest, freshwater pools, rocky coast and a natural swimming pool. You walk through the greenery to get to the water.

After Kelingking and Diamond Beach, it feels quieter and more relaxed. Those places are about big cliff views. Tembeling is about being in the trees and by the water. It was a nice change from the famous spots.

The road down is steep. Don’t automatically ride all the way down on a scooter. Think about the road and your own riding experience first.

Tembeling entry fee and extra costs:

About IDR 10,000 if you arrive on your own motorbike
About IDR 100,000 per person for a local motorcycle taxi (ojek), including the entrance fee
Parking, where it applies

An ojek makes more sense if you’re not comfortable with the descent.

Snorkeling in Nusa Penida

I also went snorkeling, and it’s a completely different side of the island from the beaches and viewpoints. Instead of looking at the coast from above, you’re in the water looking at it from below.

Nusa Penida snorkeling is done on boat trips. They take you to different spots with coral reefs and marine life, and depending on conditions and sightings you might see turtles or manta rays. Trips can be shared or private, equipment is usually provided, and the activity takes a few hours.

Snorkeling Costs in Nusa Penida

Snorkeling isn’t covered by an attraction entrance ticket. Nusa Penida snorkeling prices depend on the operator, boat type, itinerary and what’s included in the package. Advertised trips range from around IDR 200,000 per person for basic packages to about IDR 400,000 for a shared three-location trip.

What to ask before you pay:

Is it a shared or private boat?
How many locations does it cover?
Is the equipment included?
Is there a guide, and what about flotation gear?
Are transfers included?
Are photos or video extra?

Nobody can guarantee manta rays, and sea conditions can change the route on the day. If you’re not a strong swimmer, tell the guide and use flotation equipment.

Nusa Penida Entry Fees: A Complete Price Comparison

Here are the Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees all in one table, so you can see the full cost at a glance. All prices are indicative, so check them before you go.

Attraction or activity	Adult price	Child price
Nusa Penida island levy	IDR 25,000	IDR 15,000 (ages 4–13)
Kelingking Beach	IDR 25,000	IDR 15,000
Broken Beach + Angel’s Billabong	IDR 25,000 combined	IDR 15,000 combined
Diamond Beach	IDR 60,000 (combined with Atuh Beach)	Check at the gate
Tembeling Beach and Forest	IDR 10,000 by own motorbike	Check at the gate
Snorkeling	Around IDR 200,000–400,000 for shared packages	Depends on the operator

A few notes on reading it, since this is where people count the same charge twice:

The island levy (IDR 25,000 adult, IDR 15,000 child aged 4–13) is a government charge for eligible foreign visitors. The attraction tickets are separate.
Parking is on top of entrance fees.
Snorkeling and the Tembeling ojek are packages or services, not simple admission tickets.
Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong are one ticket, so don’t add them up twice.

How to Plan Your Nusa Penida Sightseeing

You don’t need a rigid timetable, but you do need to group things sensibly, and your Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees will look a lot more manageable once you do.

West Nusa Penida:

Kelingking Beach
Broken Beach
Angel’s Billabong

East Nusa Penida:

Diamond Beach

Southwest Nusa Penida:

Tembeling Beach and Forest

Marine activities:

Snorkeling trips

The west-coast places sit near each other, so do them together. Diamond Beach is on the other side of the island, so it needs its own journey. Tembeling is a separate excursion, and snorkeling is a boat trip that takes up its own chunk of time. The roads are slow, and the distances add up.

If you try to do both sides of the island, Tembeling and a snorkeling trip in one day, it gets rushed. Give yourself more time and you won’t spend the whole trip moving from one place to the next.

Practical Tips for Visiting Nusa Penida

These tips cover the practical side of the Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees above, so you don’t get caught out on the day.

Start With a Realistic Route

Group places by area, and plan your sightseeing around that route. The island is bigger than it looks and the roads are slow.

Check How You’ll Pay (Electronic Payment)

Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan are moving to electronic ticketing and electronic payment. The Klungkung tourism office’s announcement directs visitors to Easybook for electronic tickets, so that’s where to look first. Instructions can change, so check the current ticketing details before you arrive, ideally before you cross to the island.

Check whether your attraction ticket needs electronic payment. Don’t assume you can pay at the gate in cash.
Buy through the official platform and keep your confirmation handy, so you can show it when you arrive.
Carry a suitable card or supported payment method. A bank card is the safest bet.
Keep some cash in small notes for parking and small local expenses.

Wear Comfortable Shoes

You’ll want them for the steep stairs at Diamond Beach, the Kelingking descent and walking around the other viewpoints.

Bring Water and Sun Protection

The viewpoints and beach approaches are exposed and get hot.

Check Swimming Rules Before You Get in the Water

Authorities have restricted swimming at Kelingking Beach, Diamond Beach and Angel’s Billabong because of strong currents and waves. Calm-looking water isn’t a green light. Check the current local rules when you arrive, follow the signs and obey lifeguard and staff instructions.

Be Careful When Riding a Scooter

I got around by scooter, and it’s the best way to explore the island, but take it seriously:

Roads can be uneven
Some sections are steep
Watch for loose gravel and potholes
Ride slowly
Wear a helmet

Allow Enough Time for Snorkeling

Don’t squeeze a boat trip into a packed sightseeing day. Give it its own time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Nusa Penida Attractions and Entry Fees

I’d recommend at least two days if you want to explore the west and east sides, visit Tembeling and enjoy a snorkeling trip without rushing. That’s my recommendation, not a rule.

Conclusion

Nusa Penida is more than its famous cliff viewpoints, and knowing the Nusa Penida attractions and entry fees ahead of time makes the trip easier. On my trip I saw the dramatic landscape at Kelingking Beach, the coastline at Diamond Beach, the rock arch at Broken Beach, the pool at Angel’s Billabong, the greenery and water at Tembeling, and the island from underwater while snorkeling. Each one showed me a different side of Nusa Penida.

When you plan your own visit, work out the entrance costs before you go, then think about where the places are, how much time you have and what each one costs, instead of trying to cram everything into one rushed day. Nusa Penida is best when you give yourself enough time to enjoy its different landscapes.
