The last boats back leave Nusa Penida at 17:00, and foreign visitors pay Klungkung's Rp 25,000 island levy. ### Sanur to Nusa Penida in numbers | Fact | Detail | | --- | --- | | Usual way | Fast boat from Sanur | | Typical time | 30 to 45 minutes | | Fares this month | Rp 150,000 to Rp 221,000 one way | | Where it departs | Sanur beach and harbour, by company | | Where it arrives | Banjar Nyuh, Nusa Penida | ### Fast boats to Nusa Penida, November 2026 | Operator | From | To | Typical time | Fare | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Ocean Speed Fast Boat | Sanur | Nusa Penida | 35 min | Rp 200,000 | | | Semabu Hills Fast Boat | Sanur | Banjar Nyuh | 30 min | Rp 200,000 | | | Nusa Nadhi Fast Ferry | Sanur, Matahari Terbit | Banjar Nyuh | 45 min | Rp 180,000 | | | Waruna Darma Express | Sanur | Nusa Penida | 30 min | Rp 170,000 | | | Wijaya Buyuk | Sanur | Buyuk harbour | 50 min | Rp 200,000 | | | Caspla Bali Fast Cruise | Serangan | Nusa Penida | 45 min | Rp 150,000 | | | Gangga Express | Pelabuhan Tribuana, Kusamba | Sampalan | 30 min | Rp 150,000 | Open-return tickets sold too. From east Bali, not Sanur. | ### Checking in at Sanur Each company names its own meeting point in Sanur: its office, the Sanur harbour terminal or a landing such as Matahari Terbit. Go to the one printed on your ticket, not the first boat on the beach. Wear sandals and keep shoes in a bag: on Nusa Penida the Sanur boats land on the beach. ### Stepping off at Banjar Nyuh Most Sanur boats land at **Banjar Nyuh**, beside Pelabuhan Nusa Penida (Toyapakeh harbour) on the north-west coast. The Sanur boats land on the beach east of the jetty, where there are nine floating pontoons, most of them built by the boat companies. ## Nusa Penida back to Sanur: the last boats Boats back to Sanur leave Nusa Penida from 07:30 to 17:00, take 30 to 45 minutes and cost the same as the way out. Nine companies run a 17:00 boat in November 2026. Klungkung's transport office is studying an earlier last boat at 14:00, so a day trip should not count on the 17:00 for ever. ### Fast boats from Nusa Penida to Bali, November 2026 | Operator | From | To | Typical time | Fare | Notes | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Ocean Speed Fast Boat | Banjar Nyuh | Sanur | 45 min | Rp 200,000 | | | Semabu Hills Fast Boat | Banjar Nyuh | Sanur | 30 min | Rp 200,000 | | | Maruti Group Fast Boat | Nusa Penida | Sanur beach | 45 min | Rp 200,000 | | | Waruna Darma Express | Nusa Penida | Sanur | 30 min | Rp 170,000 | | | Caspla Bali Fast Cruise | Nusa Penida | Serangan | 45 min | Rp 150,000 | | | Gangga Express | Sampalan | Pelabuhan Tribuana, Kusamba | 30 min | Rp 150,000 | | ### Boarding back at Banjar Nyuh Go back to the company office named on your return ticket: on Nusa Penida each company has its own pontoon or stretch of beach at Banjar Nyuh. ### Arriving in Sanur Boats come into Sanur at their company's own landing on the beach or at the harbour. For the airport or Ubud from there, see the Bali airport and Bali transport guides. ## Quick Facts - Departure: Bali - Arrival: Nusa Penida - Main transport: not confirmed - Last checked: 2026-11-09 - Confidence: medium ## Sanur's harbour and beach departures: where the boats load Sanur is where almost everyone sails from: about 20 companies cross to Nusa Penida from its beach and harbour, against a handful from Serangan, Kusamba, Padang Bai and Nusa Dua. Each company keeps its own office and landing along the Sanur shore, so the ticket tells you where to go, not just "Sanur". | From | Companies | First and last boat | Crossing | Sold online, November 2026 | |---|---|---|---|---| | Sanur | about 20 | 06:30 to 17:00 | 30 to 45 min | Rp 150,000 to Rp 221,000 | | Serangan | 5 | 08:00 to 13:30 | 45 min to 1 h 15 min | Rp 148,800 to Rp 244,000 | | Kusamba and Tribuana | 2 | 06:30 to 17:00 | 25 to 30 min | Rp 150,000 to Rp 202,400 | | Padang Bai | 2 | 14:30, 15:00 | 30 min to 1 h | Rp 200,000 to Rp 319,200 | **Coming from Kuta, Canggu or Ubud.** For November 2026, minibus-and-boat tickets to Banjar Nyuh sell from Rp 380,000 from Kuta or Seminyak, Rp 430,000 from Canggu and Rp 460,000 from Ubud, two and a half to four and a half hours door to island. ## Toyapakeh, Banjar Nyuh or Buyuk: where you land on Penida Nusa Penida has several landings, and the company decides which one you use. Most boats from Sanur put you ashore at **Banjar Nyuh**, beside Toyapakeh harbour; that is where the drivers and scooter-hire stands wait. **Buyuk.** Wijaya Buyuk from Sanur, and Gili Getaway from Serangan, land at Buyuk harbour. **Sampalan.** The boats from Kusamba and Tribuana in east Bali, Gangga Express and The Angkal, come into Sampalan harbour. **Kutampi.** Bali Line's boat from Serangan lands at Kutampi beach; Semaya One's boats to the Gilis leave from there too. ## Nusa Lembongan and Ceningan: a different set of landings Nusa Lembongan, Penida's neighbour, has its own boats and fares. Scoot Fast Cruises sails from Sanur Harbour to Lembongan at 09:30, 11:30 and 14:00 for Rp 225,000 one way or Rp 450,000 return, and back at 10:30, 13:00 and 16:30. Eka Jaya's boats from Padang Bai land on Lembongan at the Yellow Bridge landing and on Penida at Banjar Nyuh. Eka Jaya charges Rp 350,000 from Padang Bai to Penida or Lembongan, Rp 285,000 when booked on its own website. The same Klungkung levy covers all three islands. ## The Padang Bai car ferry, the cheapest crossing The regency's car ferry, KMP Nusa Jaya Abadi, crosses from Padang Bai twice a day for Rp 31,700 per adult, a fare set by the province in 2018. It went back into service on 5 October 2026 after hull repairs, leaving Nusa Penida at 08:00; Klungkung is studying a higher fare and a third daily sailing. It is the way to bring a car or motorbike. For foot passengers, the 30-minute Gangga Express from Tribuana in Kusamba, Rp 150,000 for November 2026, is the quicker cheap crossing from east Bali. ## Nusa Penida as a day trip from Bali: what the timetable allows The first boats leave Sanur at 06:30 and the last ones back leave Nusa Penida at 17:00, so an early start gives about nine hours on the island. The crossing is the quick part of the day. **Fees on the day.** Since 1 September 2026, foreign visitors pay Klungkung's island levy of Rp 25,000 per adult and Rp 15,000 per child, and each charging attraction may ask another Rp 25,000. Ask your driver whether the attraction fees are in the price. **The last boat may move.** Klungkung's transport office said in September 2026 that it is studying moving the last boat back to 14:00, so that more visitors stay the night. Check the time on your return ticket the evening before. ## Kelingking, Broken Beach and Diamond Beach: planning a Penida day Penida's famous viewpoints are spread across the island on slow roads, so a day needs a plan. - **Kelingking, Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong** are the west coast's big three, all on the cliffs, and local operators advise seeing them in the afternoon. - **Diamond Beach**, on the east coast, is the morning one, so the two sides of the island fit better into two days than one rushed loop. - **Fewer stops:** many visitors try five or six sites in a day, and local operators advise against it, because the drives between them are long. - **The roads are steep, bendy and slippery after rain;** if you do not ride hills like these at home, hire a local driver. - **The sea sets the day:** snorkelling trips change with the waves, and so can the fast boats back to Bali, so keep some slack in the plan. ## Bali to Nusa Penida: what travellers ask ### Can you do Nusa Penida as a day trip from Bali? Yes, if you take an early boat: the first ones leave Sanur at 06:30 and the last ones back leave at 17:00, about nine hours on the island. Keep the last boat in mind when you plan the drive around the island. ### How long is the boat from Sanur to Nusa Penida? 30 to 45 minutes on most fast boats, for November 2026. A few slower ferries take up to 1 h 30 min. From Kusamba or Tribuana in east Bali, Gangga Express crosses to Sampalan in 30 minutes. ### What time is the last boat from Nusa Penida to Sanur? 17:00. Nine companies, among them Semabu Hills, Ocean Speed and Waruna Darma, run a 17:00 boat in November 2026. Klungkung regency is studying moving the last boat to 14:00, so that more visitors stay the night. ### Is there a tourist fee on Nusa Penida? Yes. Since 1 September 2026, foreign visitors to Nusa Penida, Lembongan and Ceningan pay Rp 25,000 per adult and Rp 15,000 per child, and each charging tourist attraction may ask another Rp 25,000, from foreign and Indonesian visitors alike. ### Do I need to book the Nusa Penida boat in advance? Not far ahead: about 20 companies sail from Sanur, most of them several times every morning. Book earlier if you want a pickup from your hotel. Open-return tickets, sold by Arjuna and Gangga Express, let you choose the boat back on the day. ## Sources for Bali to Nusa Penida 1.
