Five days and four nights in Bali on Nusa Penida Island, like a paradise island that doesn't really exist. The bird's eye view is absolutely breathtaking. A paradise land found only in Bali, Indonesia. I flew from Bangkok, Thailand, taking only 4 hours. It was so worth the money spent and the unforgettable experience. This is my third time in Indonesia, and there is no disappointment. #bali #nusapenida

Beautiful island with beautiful scenery worth every penny to visit and explore. The road to every spot was very adventurous but its very worth it. Its raining for awhile when we arrive at Broken Beach around half an hour and then we continue our journey. Their tour guide was very experienced and they take care of us. We were very amazed with the beautiful scenery of Nusa Penida Island. Definitely will come back in future. You have to come and visit this island once’s in a lifetime. #100waysoftravel

This time in Bali, besides enjoying the sun and beach life, I fell in love with the sunsets here! The sunsets over the sea are always the most beautiful, with the sun glowing in golden hues, illuminating the entire sky and ocean, and creating a romantic atmosphere on the nearby beach! During this trip to Nusa Penida, I lay on the beach and admired this beautiful sunset, which became a wonderful memory of my time on this island! On this island, you can also see Bali's highest volcano, Mount Agung, with its unique evening glow! It made me reluctant to leave! I highly recommend everyone to visit Bali and not miss this place!

Unforgettable Moments in Bali, Indonesia 🌺🌴 Bali — what a paradise! From the moment I landed, I knew this island was something special. The beaches are absolutely breathtaking, with golden sand, turquoise waves, and the perfect spot to just chill and enjoy the sunset. The beach clubs in Bali? Simply the best! The music, the people, and the energy — it’s like every moment there is made for fun. Whether you’re dancing by the pool or sipping a cold drink while watching the sun go down, Bali knows how to make you feel alive. And let’s talk about the culture — so rich, so unique, and so full of life. One of the most amazing experiences I had was watching the Kecak Dance, a traditional Balinese performance filled with rhythm, passion, and storytelling. It was hypnotic — you could feel the spirit of Bali in every beat and movement. Then there’s Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK), the iconic cultural park. Standing in front of that massive statue of Lord Vishnu riding Garuda — it’s truly majestic! The whole area is stunning, with cultural shows, art, and incredible views of the island. Bali has it all — nature, culture, nightlife, and peace all in one place. Every corner of the island has something new to offer, and every visit feels like falling in love all over again. If you’ve never been to Bali, trust me — it’s not just a destination, it’s a feeling. 🌅✨#mytraveldiary #bali #travel #paradise #nusapenida

Discover Bali’s Jurassic Gem: Kelingking Beach 🦖🌊 Get ready for a wild adventure at Kelingking Beach—famous for its T-rex-shaped cliff and jaw-dropping turquoise waters! This spot isn’t just Insta-famous, it’s a bucket-list natural wonder that’ll leave you awestruck. ⏱️ Recommended Route: Start at the main viewpoint at Bunga Mekar for the iconic “dinosaur” cliff shot, then follow the steep path down to the powdery beach if you're feeling adventurous. The hike isn’t long (30–45 mins), but it’s rugged—hold onto the rails as you descend! 📸 Must-do Experiences: Snap the T-rex cliff from the top lookout—stand slightly to the left for the best angle. If you dare, trek down to feel the remote paradise vibes and dramatic waves up close. 🖼️ Top Photo Spots: The classic cliff shot from the upper platform (early morning for soft light and fewer people). On the beach, capture the cliff looming above for a wild, Jurassic Park-style frame! 🎒 Practical Tips: Wear sturdy shoes—flip flops are a no-go for the tough descent. Pack water, sunscreen, and snacks, as there’s limited shade and minimal vendors. Start your day early to avoid crowds and the midday heat. ⚠️ Key Precautions: The path is steep, slippery, and not for children or those with mobility issues. Stick to the trail and don’t swim—currents are dangerous. Enjoy the view; leave only footprints. #Bali #NusaPenida #KelingkingBeach #NatureWonder #TravelNotes

Magical Moments Await at Hagia Sophia, Istanbul 🕌✨ Step into the heart of Istanbul at the legendary Hagia Sophia, where centuries of history and jaw-dropping Byzantine architecture collide with shimmering mosaics and golden domes. This UNESCO treasure is the ultimate “must-see” if you crave iconic city vibes in Istanbul. 🧭 Recommended Route: Start early to beat the crowds—doors open at 9 AM. Begin your visit outside for a classic photo with Hagia Sophia’s grand facade bathed in morning light! Enter via the main gate, then wind your way through the grand nave to take in those soaring ceilings and intricate frescoes. Don’t miss the upper gallery—it's the spot for breathtaking panoramic shots looking down into the main hall. 📸 Insta-Worthy Angles: Snap the central dome from the nave, then capture those massive “Allah” calligraphy disks for drama. The second floor gallery offers an unbeatable viewpoint over the marble floor and praying visitors below. 👍 Must-Do Activities: - Stand under the dome and whisper to hear your echo - Seek out the “Weeping Column”—legend says touching it grants good luck - Pause outside for a street-side coffee with Hagia Sophia as your backdrop 💡 Visiting Tips: Arrive before 10 AM for a more tranquil experience. Dress modestly as Hagia Sophia is an active mosque; cover your shoulders and legs, and bring a scarf to cover your head if needed. ⚠️ Precautions: Tripods are not allowed inside. Watch out for slippery marble floors, especially on rainy days! #Istanbul #HagiaSophia #HistoricSites #TravelTips #MustVisit

Dreaming of pristine beaches? 🏝️ Let’s break down my recent adventure to the ultimate spot for sun-chasing: “best plage” (aka the best beach)! Sparkling turquoise waters, powdery sands, and a serious chill vibe all day long — this was hands-down the highlight of my trip 😎. Top Spots to Visit: 🏖️ The Beach – Start your day soaking up rays on the main stretch. Most “best plage”-type locations offer public access and have lifeguard patrols from 10am to 6pm. Bring your own towel and sunblock, or rent loungers for extra comfort. 🏄♂️ Water Activities – Paddleboard rentals and kayak stations are usually easy to find along the promenade and are open until sunset. Pro tip: go early morning for calmer water and fewer crowds! 🥤 Snack Shack – Don’t miss the beachfront snack bar. Fresh juice and grilled seafood are must-tries! If the “best plage” has any local vendors, grab an ice-cold coconut. My Top Tips: 🕶️ Get there early – The softest sand and prime spots fill up by 10am, so set your alarm and hit the shore first thing. 💧 Stay hydrated – There’s usually a refill station or shops selling bottled water nearby. ⏰ Check tide times – Some best beach locations have epic sandbanks revealed at low tide; check local bulletin boards or ask a lifeguard. 👣 Footwear matters – Flip-flops will do for walking the boardwalk, but water shoes help for rocky areas near the cliffs. Getting Around: If parking is tight, use local shuttle buses or bike rentals. Taxis can be pricey in beach hotspots, so public transport saves cash. Most snack shacks and surf rentals accept card, but stash some cash for small local vendors! Food Picks: Try grilled fish at the main shack by the lifeguard stand, and grab a fresh smoothie from the coconut cart closer to the pier. Weather Tip: Pack a light coverup — breezes kick up in the afternoon! #BeachDreams #TravelTips #SunnyDays

Best Journey in Nusa ❤️❤️ love this place

#LetsTravelWithPochiKatsu On the second day of our trip to Bali, we went to Nusa Penida Island. It's about a 40-minute speedboat ride from Sanur Port. We had arranged for a car charter, and they booked the tour for us. First, we went snorkeling at three manta ray spots. 🤿 Apparently, there's a 70% chance of encountering a manta ray! We managed to encounter three wild manta rays. ✨ After that, we had lunch and went to Kelingking Beach. Kelingking Beach is far from the port, so it took quite a while to get there by car. It was crowded with tourists, but the views were breathtaking and I was blown away. 🥹 We also wanted to go to Broken Beach, but we ran out of time. Be careful, because if you snorkel, you won't have time to explore the other scenic spots. #Bali #NuSa #NuSaTour #KelingkingBeach

Bali's Complete Destination — Nature, Culture, and Impressions Bali is a destination that combines everything. Its natural beauty, from rivers flowing through lush forests to breathtaking mountain views and verdant rice paddies, makes this trip both colorful and memorable. What's amazing is that the travel costs are incredibly affordable. Round-trip airfare is only about 6,500 baht. Accommodation is also excellent, comfortable, and offers a wide range of options. The locals are friendly and welcoming, making you feel like you're visiting a friend's home. Traveling is also easy. If you rent a car with a driver, you won't have to worry about directions. Getting to any destination is incredibly convenient. The local food may be a little strange to me, but it's a worthwhile experience. And most importantly, halal food is readily available, so you won't have to worry about food. #BaliTravel #UbudTravel #Nusapenida #Bali

Island trip

Ready for an epic Bali sea adventure? 🌊✨ From stunning beaches to thrilling water sports, this trip is all about soaking up island vibes and embracing the best that Bali’s coastline has to offer! Top Spots to Visit — Your Ultimate Bali Sea Adventure Guide 1. Tanjung Benoa Beach Jl. Pratama, Tanjung Benoa, Badung 7am–6pm This is the water sport HQ of Bali! Go wild with jet skiing, banana boat rides, and parasailing. Tip: Arrive early to beat the crowds and get the best rates directly on the beach. 2. Blue Lagoon Beach Padangbai, Manggis, Karangasem 8am–6pm A snorkelling paradise! Rent gear from kiosks right at the shore and explore coral reefs packed with colorful fish. My advice: bring reef-safe sunscreen and a waterproof phone pouch for those insta-worthy underwater shots. 3. Nusa Lembongan Day Trip Catch ferries from Sanur (morning departures, 8–10am) White sand, mangrove tours, and crystal clear water await. Book a snorkel+island tour combo from the local stands when you arrive—it’s cheaper and more fun than pre-booking. Don’t miss Dream Beach for sunset chill vibes. How To Get Around Use Bali’s Grab and Gojek apps for easy rides between spots, or hire a local driver for the day if you want to hit multiple beaches (haggle for the best price). Where To Eat Try Warung Bambu (Tanjung Benoa) for fresh seafood or Mangrove Beach Club (Nusa Lembongan) for drinks with a view. Always ask for the freshest catch—it pays off! Destination Tips Pack quick-dry clothes, plenty of cash (some kiosks don’t take cards), and stay hydrated! Most water sports close before dusk, so plan ahead. Rainy season is October–March, so double-check forecasts. #BaliBeachLife #SeaAdventure #TravelTips #SnorkelBali

Best island in Bali Nusa peneda I was in that island for like 5 hours from one point to another point had a great time

--- ## An Unforgettable Day at Kelingking Beach and Manta Point, Nusa Penida My recent trip to Nusa Penida, Bali, was nothing short of magical. The highlight of my adventure was undoubtedly the breathtaking visit to Kelingking Beach and Manta Point. As I arrived at Kelingking Beach, I was greeted by stunning views of the turquoise waters, framed by dramatic cliffs. The vibrant blue hues of the ocean were mesmerizing, creating a picture-perfect backdrop that seemed almost unreal. It was the kind of scenery that makes you pause and appreciate the beauty of nature. After soaking in the views, I made my way to Manta Point, eager for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Once I reached my destination, I couldn’t resist the temptation to dive into the crystal-clear water. As I descended, I was filled with excitement and a hint of nervousness. Looking below, I was awestruck to see not just one, but at least three majestic manta rays gliding effortlessly through the water. Their enormous wingspans and graceful movements left me speechless. The sight was so incredible that it felt surreal, and it’s a moment I will cherish forever. This trip to Nusa Penida was more than just a getaway; it was an unforgettable experience filled with stunning landscapes and awe-inspiring marine life. I can't wait to return! --- #trip #bali #nusapenida #indonesiatrip

3 days 2 nights at Penida Island My girl friend & I are a type of 🐌 traveller, we don't do things all together in a day trip as the common schedule planner recommend to Penida because Penida offer us much more things which even our 3 days 2 nights not even cover half places I wanted to go. As usual, we took our own sweet time checked out hotel in Ubud & head to ferry terminal to boarded the 12.30pm board. Reach Penida arrival ferry terminal & head to hotel to places our stuffs. Our super helpful driver -Wayi brought us to Broken Beach & T-rex beach. His skill of taking video blew my mind, there are my most impressive videos someone ever took for me by my phone 😀 Love love love the sunset at T-rex. Just wished to have more time exploring the beach before night fall, but no, we had to head back hotel due to the road condition & we felt pity for Wayi navigating the car in that road condition. Day 2 The view from the way up to Tree House & above Tree House, White Cliff at Dimond Beach are like a dream. They are all very very worth every single steps we took to enjoy these magnificent views. Oh, we forget that we managed to did some time at the Beach Club on day 2, it was a beach club where 3 layers of infinity pool with water flowing make our photos look like we are in somewhere in Greece. Day 3. We had a very long walk on the beach in front of our resort & had a very delicious breakfast before heading to Ferry terminal. Bye Penida, we had a great time & will definitely come back one day. #holidayitinerary
