Nusa Lembongan.

What to do in Nusa Lembongan Bali Indonesia

Life here revolves around the tide tables. The northern strip along Jungut Batu houses the dive operators, fishing outriggers, and simple warungs facing Mount Agung. The southern limestone bluffs catch the raw Indian Ocean swell around Devil's Tear and Dream Beach. It suits travellers who prefer exploring by scooter, spending mornings submerged on coral walls, and ending days with cold lager and grilled fish with sand between their toes.
