Find Yourself in Island Paradise!
Nusa Lembogan is a true island paradise, a world away from
the hassle and hectic pace of South Bali. Neither hawkers nor
traffic mar the magnificent scenery; this is a fine place to just
put your feet up and relax. Main activities include surfing,
diving and snorkeling. The water is some of the clearest you
will find anywhere, and a vivid aqua blue in colour.
Even as Nusa Lembongan grows in popularity, it remains a
mellow place. Many areas around the island are good for
diving and snorkeling, with abundant marine life and healthy
coral. For surfers the waves are good with several popular reef
breaks. There are several white sand beaches away from the
main centres which are virtually never crowded and the
secluded and traditional Nusa Ceningan is a fun scooter or
bike ride away over a small bridge.
Many Santosha students (and teachers!) have visited this island
and fallen in love with its relaxed pace, stunning beaches and
breathtaking sunset views. It is the perfect place to relax and
revitalise away from the stresses of the fast paced world. We
would like to prescribe to everyone some time on this magical
island paradise to rejuvenate and renew!
For this very reason we are so excited to be sharing our new
shala in this beautiful location with our 2017 students. We
cannot wait to show off our new home and enjoy all the island
has to offer with you!
Nusa Lembongan – How to Get There
There are a wide range of options available for boat travel from Bali to Nusa Lembongan..
Which boat you take depends mainly upon your budget and time frame. If you are coming
from Bali, all boats leave from north Sanur, where the harbour is located at the end of Jalan
Hang Tuah. You will find the offices for all boat companies on this street.
To reach Sanur, you will fly into (Ngurah Rai) Denpasar Airport in Bali. Sanur is around 45
minutes drive from the airport. Rocky and other Fast Boat services can arrange an airport pick
up for you. Request with them at time of booking.
Fast Boats – Santosha recommends!! 20 – 30 mins - approx 500.000 IDR return ($50 AU)
Packages include pick-up from south Bali and transfer to your hotel in Nusa Lembongan.
Rocky Fast Cruises: This company offers a complete package and provides transport door to
door throughout south Bali. They have four departures throughout the day and take care of
your luggage. See more here: https://rockyfastcruise.com/
Scoot: http://www.scootcruise.com/
Bali Fast Boats booking agent: http://www.balifastboats.com/
Other options:
Public Slow Boat: These large wooden outrigger boats leave Sanur at 10:30 and cost 100,000
IDR ($10). The journey takes about 1.5hrs. Return boats leave Lembongan only once a day at
08:00 am. The public boat organisation is run as a cooperative, so each day a different family
provides the service. When you arrive in Jungutbatu, be aware that you may not come into
the public boat office, but return to the family mooring somewhere along the beach. Most
guesthouses offer a free pick up service – specify that you will be landing here.
Public Speed Boat: The public speed boat leaves Sanur at 09:00am, 12:30pm and 16:00pm
and takes 30 min to reach Lembongan. Don't get on a boat at other times unless you want to
end up on Mushroom Beach, which requires a motorbike taxi to get to our side of the island.
Return boats leave Lembongan at 08.00am, 10:30am and 15:00am. Like the public slow
boats, you may be dropped anywhere along the beach when you arrive in Lembongan; not
necessarily at the public boat office.
Accommodation Options – Nusa Lembongan
As our amazing shala is in the process of being built we do not yet have any pictures to share of the onsite accommodation. We look forward
to sharing these with you very soon. With accommodation, this means you have three choices:
a.  Wait until we have pictures and onsite accommodation options to share (late 2016)
b.  Select from one of the nearby options we recommend – please email for options J
c.  Choose your own accommodation in Nusa Lembongan (see map below for reference – use Mainski as a reference point as is next door)
There are no shortage of accommodation options in the area as Nusa Lembongan is a much loved holiday destination!

Diving, Surf and Island Living... In our Tropical Paradise!
Snorkellers, divers, beach-lovers and surfers will love our new Bali Island home! Nusa Lembongan is a diver’s paradise with nice drifts, amazing quality
corals, superb fish life, year round Manta spotting, Shark and Mola Mola thrown in as well. Nusa Lembongan is home to some world-class waves and
has surf-able waves all year round. The island has three main breaks that can be enjoyed by the beginner to the more experienced surfer.
For those that prefer the view of the ocean from the shore, there is still much to offer for you as well. Hire a bicycle and explore the jungle and beaches
of Nusa Lembongan and neighbouring Nusa Ceningan, explore Balinese temples, enjoy the many options for yoga in the area or simply find a café
with a scenic view and soak up the beauty of this peaceful island.
Nusa Lembongan is best reached via Fast Boat from Sanur in Bali.
