Southeastern Islands
Southeastern Islands, Bali, Indonesia
These three islands sit some 15 km off the south eastern coast of Bali. The Badung Strait separates the islands from Bali. All three feature white sand beaches and wonderfully crystal clear waters.
Nusa Lembongan is by far the best known by visitors and has a well developed level of tourism-related infrastructure within its eight square kilometers or so. This is a popular surfing location with three highly rated breaks, has some lovely beaches and coves and a range of accommodation to suit all budgets.
Nusa Ceningan is a tiny island where few people stay but it is easily reached via a suspension bridge from Nusa Lembongan. Has a well regarded surf break and is a fun place to explore.
Nusa Penida is huge in comparison to the other two at more than 200 square kilometres. It is though a wild and untamed island in every imaginable way and has very little in the way of tourist facilities. This is an island of stunning natural rugged beauty and tourist development plans have been rumored and mooted to no effect for many years now. Currently, Nusa Penida is best known as a world class diving destination.
