Crystal Bay is a stunning beach located on the western coast of Nusa Penida, renowned for its crystal-clear waters and peaceful, idyllic atmosphere. It is a popular spot for snorkeling and swimming, with vibrant coral reefs and abundant marine life, including the chance to spot manta rays and mola-mola (sunfish) during certain seasons. The soft golden sand and calm waters make it a great place to relax, sunbathe, and enjoy the natural beauty of the island. The surrounding cliffs and lush greenery provide a picturesque backdrop, creating a serene and inviting environment for visitors.
Accessible by motorbike or car, Crystal Bay is one of the more accessible beaches on Nusa Penida.
