Practical points for the island. Boat times, check-in and the day trip are in the route guide.
Arrival in the water
At Jungut Batu and Mushroom Bay the boats land on the beach, and you wade ashore. Pack bags you can carry; Rocky Fast Cruise lands at its own jetty. Reduced mobility: what to ask before you book.
Getting around
There are hardly any cars. Pick-up trucks and tuk-tuks work as taxis, and scooters and buggies are for hire. The roads are narrow and hilly.
The Yellow Bridge
The bridge to Nusa Ceningan was rebuilt in 2017. It is 140 m long and 1.8 m wide, and open to pedestrians and motorbikes only.
Entry fee
Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Ceningan and Nusa Penida charge IDR 25,000 per adult and IDR 15,000 per child aged 4 to 13, on top of the Bali tourist levy of IDR 150,000. It was introduced as one payment for all three islands: keep your receipt and ask at the harbour if you cross to another island.
Money
The island has only a few ATMs, and they are often empty or offline. Withdraw cash in Bali; hotels and restaurants that take cards often add a surcharge.
Season and sea
High waves in the Badung Strait can delay or stop the boats, most often from June to August. The route guide has the details.
