How to spend time in Nusa Penida

The main reason to go to Nusa Penida, and also the reason why we are here, is absolutely to dive. We regularly organize freedive trips to Manta Rays. We invite you to join this amazing adventure and try Nusa Penida diving.

Nusa Penida dive sites are the best in the Bali region. A rich, well-known dive site called SD is just in front of our school gate. It is a home reef for us.

Here is the map of the island’s dive sites. There are plenty of them.

Nusa Penida is very popular among scuba divers. It is especially noticeable during the high season — starting July until September when there is a big chance to see Mola-Mola fish (Moonfish). Divers from Bali and Nusa Lembongan coming here with daily trips for a couple of dives. At this time Crystal Bay could be really crowded — tens of diving speedboats park there. If you want to experience scuba diving di Nusa Penida there are a few dive centers on the island.

The places that are good both for snorkeling and freediving are SD, Ped, Sental, Buyuk, Crystal Bay, Gamat Bay, Malibu Beach, Suwehan Beach. All of them could be reached from the shore.

We have the amazing possibility to dive with giant Manta Rays all year long. It is such an unforgettable, magical experience. No one can guarantee meeting with mantas – it is wild nature, not a zoo. It depends on different weather conditions such as wave heights and water temperature, the possibility differs from time to time. But once it happens, you will value this experience so much that you will never forget it.

We take the trip to the manta spots with experienced captains whom we trust.

Near Crystal Bay, there is a special place — an underwater cave that is partially filled with air. Thousands of bats are living there. But it is a kind of place where only experienced freedivers are allowed to come.

Those who are not diving would also love to come to Nusa Penida for special places of interest and natural wonders.

Enjoy the best things to do in Nusa Penida with a plan including Freedive Nusa.

Peguyungan Waterfall is not really a waterfall. It is a spring going up through the rock. You need to walk on 700 stairs to reach it, so it would be a special experience.
