Bali's Sisters Island : Nusa Penida, Nusa Ceningan, and Nusa Lembongan are Bali's "Sister Islands". Nusa Penida is the ideal place to get off from the crowded Bali island. It is now very easy to reach. Here you can fully take rest. It is a wonderful place to walk, or drive through the villages in the highlands and along the shore to experience the island's rough beauty. It is also an impressive experience to spend the day or the night in the local home, as local people are very friendly.


Several places : of interest are worth to visit, such as Karang Sari Cave at Suana, Sebuluh Waterfall near Batu Madeg. The most interesting temple is the "Ratu Gede Mecaling's" Pura Ped. The temple is north of the main road, on the beach, about 50 meters from the sea. It is approximately 4 Km from the village of Toya Pakeh.


Goa Giri Putri : It is situated at Karangsari hamlet belonging to Suana village in Nusa Penida district, 5 Km east of Batununggul village.It is a bit difficult to enter it, but as soon as you pass 3 meters inside we will find ourselves in a spacious but too dark pitch. There are a great deal of stalagmites and stalactites inside and also a spring sacred by the local people. This cave pass through right to west and here is the other outlet which is wide enough.
