4 Tips for First-time Travelers to Bali

BY  Sibashree Aug 23, 2025

The tourism scene of Nusa Penida, Bali, right now looks like a Bollywood potboiler. There is action, there is drama, and some special entries that will blow you away.  On one hand, there has been an ongoing construction work of a glass elevator at the Kelingking Beach of Nusa Penida. The beach is famous for its T. rex cliff. However, the trek to the beach involves steep ascending and descending, making the process physically demanding.  The glass elevator will, no doubt, resolve the problem. Still, the local people here are worried that the elevator will ruin nature, promote unnecessary commercialization of the beach, ruin the charm of the Kelingking Beach, and cause disastrous impacts in the long run. Furthermore, with rapid tourism development in Nusa Penida, the century-old practices of seaweed cultivation by women of Nusa Penida are impacted. The women cultivators are now working with tourism operators and coral conservation groups to minimize the impact on their livelihood and, at large, on the ecosystem of Nusa Penida.  With these major environmental concerns, Nusa Penida continues to surprise us with incidents like the rare sighting of a great white shark at Pura Ped, a dive site on the northern shore of Nusa Penida.  Swedish divemaster Fabian Clinton recorded the incident in March 2025, and Sarah Taylor, a dive master of the same group, said,  ‘The whole encounter was just amazing, unbelievable. There are no other words to describe it! ‘Seeing something in the blue, a shadow that none of us knew what it was (we thought it was a whale shark!) but when we did realise, we very quickly skipped back – what a great dive, a once-in-a-lifetime experience!” Do you also want to experience the wonders of a Nusa Penida tour? Let’s plan a beautiful trip to this beautiful island in Bali, Indonesia.  Where Is Nusa Penida Island?

However, seaweed production has been a major concern in the last 10 years or so due to a change in the weather conditions and a sudden tourism boom.  Nyoman Mitri, a part of a community of seaweed-producing women in Nusa Penida, has said to Mongabay,  “It never used to be like this. It’s only been the last 10 years or so that rain has begun to seriously damage the seaweed.” What Are The Places To Visit In Nusa Penida?
