Nusa Penida<\/h2>\n

Just a stone\u2019s throw from Bali\u2019s southeastern coast lies Nusa Penida<\/a>, the largest of the three Nusa islands. Densely forested and sparsely populated, this jungle paradise is a secluded haven far from the bustle of Bali\u2019s mainland. For newlyweds seeking their own private adventure and lots of one-on-one time together, it\u2019s the perfect place to visit during your honeymoon.<\/p>\n

Things to see and do in Nusa Penida<\/h3>\n
Check out Broken Beach<\/h5>\n

Broken beach is one of Bali\u2019s most stunning natural wonders and is located on the southwestern coast of the island. Travel by motorbike to see this colossal collapsed cave, which forms an incredible walled bay at the foot of towering cliffs. This unique coastal formation is a must-see on Nusa Penida and a popular place to appreciate the raw beauty of the island\u2019s coastline.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/i><\/b>The warm, tropical waters surrounding Nusa Penida house an abundance of marine life, from vibrant corals to manta rays. Take a snorkelling or scuba trip to Manta Bay<\/a>\u00a0for a chance to see these gentle giants in their natural habitat.<\/p>\n

Take a dip in Tembeling Water Spring<\/h5>\n

This secluded swimming spot is located on the south coast of Nusa Penida and is easily reachable by motorbike. The steep gravel path leading down to the pool must be traversed on foot, however, as it is too steep and treacherous for bikes.\u00a0Fortunately, the crystalline, freshwater pool you’ll find at the bottom is well worth the effort. Submerge yourself beneath the waterfall to cool off after your hike and enjoy the glorious ocean views together.<\/p>\n

Visit Goa Giri Putri Temple<\/h5>\n

Soak up some local culture with a trip to Karangsari cave, which houses the exceptional Goa Giri Putri Temple. Visitors must enter one at a time through a low, narrow tunnel, before emerging into a much wider cavern. This holy site is large enough to hold 5000 people and is a unique monument to traditional Balinese religion.<\/p>\n
