Access to Diamond Beach Nusa Penida
Access was not available until late 2018. This staircase made from limestone can now be reached from the beach in 20 minutes. It should only be visited at low tide. The sea in that area is rough and dangerous.
You could get to the beaches by walking through the rocks. The toughest parts are when it comes to stepping out onto the earth and walking through bushes, down a rocky cliff, and over rocks in the sea.
Unfortunately, this beach isn’t suitable for swimming. All waves contain many coral stones and rocks that can cause painful pain and damage.
