About NusaLembongan.com

An independent guide to Bali’s three Nusa islands, for people who want more than a day trip.

NusaLembongan.com exists to help you get the most out of Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Ceningan and Nusa Penida — not just where to snorkel, but how the boats work, which trips are worth it, when the mantas and mola mola appear, how to stay safe at the cliffs and what the fees are before you travel.

What we cover

  • How to reach Lembongan from Sanur, the airport and the rest of Bali, with real journey times and prices.
  • Which tours are worth booking, ranked honestly and updated as ratings change.
  • What to see — Devil’s Tear, Dream Beach, the mangroves, the Yellow Bridge, the Blue Lagoon, Manta Point, Kelingking and more.
  • Where to stay on Lembongan and Ceningan, for every budget.
  • When to come, and what each month really feels like in and out of the water.

How we research

Prices, schedules and journey times are checked against operators, boat companies and booking platforms, and reviewed regularly. Tour ratings and review counts come directly from GetYourGuide; hotel scores from Trip.com. Where a figure moves around — boat fares, local levies, entrance fees — we give a range and say so, rather than pretending to a precision that does not exist.

Where we express an opinion, it is an opinion. We tell you when a trip involves a long transfer, when a cheaper option is the better one, and when the sea makes something not worth doing.

How the site is funded

We are a GetYourGuide affiliate partner and a Trip.com partner. If you book a tour or a room through a link on this site, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That is the only way this guide is funded — there is no advertising, no sponsored placements and no paid inclusion in any ranking. Read the full affiliate disclosure.

Prices change, rules change, boats change schedules. If something here is out of date or wrong, please tell us — we would rather fix it than defend it. Write to us on the contact page.
