Thousand Island Nusa Penida

Thousand Island Nusa Penida

The beauty of Bali isn't only because of the wonderful temples architecture, but also its natural beauty offered by a number of islands which surrounds Bali. One of them is Nusa Penida Island, the island was only for a spiritual destination for Hindus, but currently, Nusa Penida became popular with a number of natural beauty offered.

One of them is Thousand Island Nusa Penida, which is located next to Atuh beach in Pelilit Hamlet, Tanglad Nusa Penida Bali. If you come from Bali Island, you can use a speed boat or fast boat from the Sanur or Padang Bai harbor. Thousand Island with its beauty seems to be hidden behind a steep cliff, to get to the location needs an extra effort which is quite challenging, its natural scenery is very fantastic and spectacular that hasn't been touched by humans.

From the top of the cliff, you can watch a line or cluster of small islands that look like small hills in the middle of the ocean and surrounded by steep cliffs. This is definitely a photogenic tourist spot in Nusa Penida Bali! Many people say the natural of Thousand Island is similar to the popular Raja Ampat in Papua. On the hillside of Thousand Island, visitors are safe to walk because locals make the wooden fences and at the end of the hill there is also a Pelinggih (Hindu Holy Building). This is the symbol of a holy place. To visit the sacred area here, you need to pay attention to especially about the ethics and not littering.

In addition, you must also be considered yourself about security issues. Here, the narrow road is only given a fence in the form of a branch which incidentally is not at all sturdy. The soil condition is also quite slippery. Therefore, be careful for those of you who are not familiar with trekking activities.

Besides the natural scenery of the sea, a small group of little islands in the middle of the sea and steep ravines, there are also tree houses on the Thousand Island. As the name of a tree house, houses of wood materials are made on trees that have many branches, as well as tree houses in Karangasem and Temega. To get to the tree house there are wooden stairs and rope handles that visitors can use to go into the house, the view from this tree house will certainly be even more special, you will be freer to witness the beauty of nature surrounds you from the height. The tree house was named the Batu Molenteng Tree House.

Please note, if you go to this place, make sure you wear the right costume. This place is not only a location to relax. Otherwise, Thousand Island Nusa Penida requires trekking activities which are quite challenging to achieve it.
