One other option is to head around Nusa Lembongan to Mangrove Point. Here you can usually drum up some interest from one of the local fishermen that would be willing to run you across to Nusa Penida for the right price. This is a bit similar to negotiating with the fishermen at Pemuteran to get a ride out to Gili Putih Sumberkima. Just have Mola Mola Nusa Penida. The water around Nusa Penida is fairly cold due to a deep up-welling south of Bali and the nutrient-rich deep-water trench is renowned as one of the top places in the world to spot mola mola, the giant oceanic sunfish. The strange-looking mola mola looks like a big head swimming around without a body. There are often ceremonies going on inside with locals all wearing white, along with some bats flying around, and chanting. Getting to Nusa Penida. Unfortunately there are no boats from Bali or Lombok that go directly to Nusa Penida. Unless you take a day tour, you’ll need to head to Lembongan first and then take a boat over to Nusa Penida. You can get around the island of Nusa Penida by scooter/bike or car. Renting a scooter is cheaper and costs around 85,000 IDR or $ 5 USD per day. It's not advisable to drive around Nusa Penida, especially if you are a newbie driver, because the roads are in extremely poor condition compared to Nusa Lembongan and Cenigan. Basically, you need to make your way to the Yellow Bridge (Lembongan Side) and get a boat over to Nusa Penida. The boat back to Nusa Lembongan will go from the same beach (Toyapakeh Harbour) and leaves 2 pm, 3 pm, 4 pm and 5 pm. After 5 pm the tide can get too low to return all the way back to the Yellow Bridge on Lembongan. Around Seganing Waterfall. If you are a bit in a hurry, or if you are already exhausted by several descents and ascents of Nusa Penida cliffs, simply stay up there. Seganing Waterfall is indeed worth the trip even if you decide not to go down the cliff. A small bamboo platform has recently been set up to overlook the cliff and take cool pictures. 4th Day Itinerary in Nusa Penida: Dive with Manta Rays and Visit Peguyangan Waterfalls.
