The Hidden Pearls in Bali |
 They have amazing beaches, perfect for watersports like diving and snorkeling. The people of the isles fish and harvest seaweed, so you can also get closer to local life - see traditional fishing methods and how seaweed is collected.
In the past locals used use traditional boats for the trip to Nusa Penida. Today, the Kapal Ferry Roro Nusa Jaya Abadi runs. The transport of people and cargo is often delayed because of big waves. This uncertainty of supply tends to make things more expensive. The coming of the ship was eagerly awaited by the people of Nusa Penida, but, on the other hand, the owners of traditional boats worry about lost income.
The ship leaves Nusa Penida at 5 a.m. for Padangbai Harbour, starting its return to Nusa Penida at 6. In the afternoon the ship leaves for Padangbai at 4, returning to Nusa Penida at 5. This leaves plenty of time outside the ship's schedule when traditional boats provide a service.
