Getting to Nusa Penida: The Complete Transportation Guide
Nusa Penida is wildly beautiful, but getting here requires a brief journey across the Badung Strait. Here is exactly how to cross over from mainland Bali safely and efficiently.

Almost all fast boats depart from Sanur Harbour. We recommend booking tickets in advance via trusted providers. Upon arrival, navigating the island can be an adventure all on its own.

Arriving at The Penida Project
Once you arrive at either Toyapakeh or Buyuk harbor, The Penida Project is just a short drive away. You can easily negotiate a local taxi or rent a scooter at the port.
