Kelingking Beach
Pantai Kelingking
A limestone peninsula on Nusa Penida's southwest coast, shaped like a T-Rex. From the clifftop you look down on blue sea and white sand, making it Bali's most iconic photo spot.
Kelingking Beach is on the southwest coast of Nusa Penida. A narrow limestone ridge juts into the sea, and from the clifftop lookout it resembles a T-Rex head, with a crescent of white sand below. The lookout is only a few minutes' walk from the parking lot. The steep path down the cliffside to the beach takes 45–60 minutes one way. It's steep, the surface is loose, and there are only basic railings, so those with average fitness should enjoy the view from the top. The waves on the beach are strong, so swimming isn't advised. A small entrance fee and parking fee apply. Most visitors reach the island by a 30–45-minute speedboat ride from Sanur Harbour, and join a west-coast day tour that also includes Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong. Crowds peak between 10:00 and 15:00, so bring plenty of water and wear non-slip shoes.
