An instagramable moment - you’ll always cherish
Kelingking Beach is arguably one of the most popular stops on Nusa Penida. It is located on the southwest coast of the island (about a 30-minute drive from Toya Pakeh Harbour). You have to pay a fee of 5,000 IDR for parking, which can be chaotic dependent upon how many other vehicles are there at the same time. It’s then about a five minute walk, along a well worn but rough path - which has a series of shacks, selling hats, food, coconuts and ice cream, to the coastal cliff. The view from the top provides the most enchanting views of the island's coastline, where steep cliffs are greeted by crystal blue water. The safety at Kelingking is reliant on the bamboo railings. At many points along the cliff edge, there is no rail whatsoever and the grass just leads you off the edge, down hundreds of metres onto the rocks. A trip to Kelingking Beach can last anywhere from 10 minutes, if you are just there to take photos or have an Instagram moment, to over 3 hours, if you are up for the intense hike down (takes about 60 mins to get down to the beach and slightly longer to get back up). Whilst the beach looked so inviting the climb down and back looked exhausting. It is a spectacular view, which you share with hundreds of other tourists, but if you’ve travelled all the way to Nusa Penida then this is one of those iconic spots you need to visit.

Beautiful view from the cliff
We have long wanted to visit this magnificent place. Be prepared for the fact that it is very hot here. We really enjoyed the view of cool colors of water and nature. There are a lot of tourists here, and sometimes you have to wait if you want to make a photo at some points. Also you can go down to the beach, but it's a hard way and we did it.
