Between Kelingking and Broken Beach
Kelingking Beach and Broken Beach are both headline Nusa Penida stops, but they sit on different parts of the island. Linking them needs a planned island drive.
Where Kelingking is
Kelingking Beach is on the island's south-west, famous for its cliff shape. From there, Broken Beach on the west coast is roughly 30 to 50 minutes by the island's rough roads.
Linking the two
Most visitors join them with a west-coast loop that also includes Angel's Billabong, Paluang Cliff and sometimes Crystal Bay. A private car with driver makes the connection far easier than multiple scooter trips.
Order and timing
A common order is Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong first, then Paluang Cliff, then Kelingking later in the day. Confirm road conditions and leave buffer time.
- Treat 30 to 50 minutes as a road estimate, not a guarantee.
- Do not attempt to walk between them; the distance is too far.
- Pre-book a full-day driver to connect both.
