💡 Tips

  • Take the earliest fast boat from Sanur to enjoy the island before the day-trippers arrive.
  • Rent a golf buggy instead of a scooter if you are traveling with kids or have extra luggage.
  • Visit the Devil's Tear rock formation before 9:00 AM to avoid the large tour groups.
  • Use water refill stations (like at Bali Eco Deli) to help reduce plastic waste on the island.
  • Stock up on cash in Jungut Batu, as ATMs on the island are unreliable and often run out of money.

Lembongan is the heart of the island of the same name, located off the southeastern coast of Bali. Unlike the busy mainland, a relaxed 'Island Life' atmosphere prevails here. The village is a hub for water sports enthusiasts, nature lovers, and those seeking peace. The landscape is defined by rugged coastlines and lush mangrove forests. A special gem is Secret Point Beach, located on the neighboring Ceningan Island (accessible via the famous yellow bridge), and is world-renowned among surfers for its excellent waves. The beach features a dramatic view of the Indian Ocean. Secret Beach, on the other hand, is a hidden spot of tranquility surrounded by limestone cliffs and emerald-green water. The local economy is traditionally based on seaweed farming, which can be observed while walking along the waterfront. Lembongan is also a paradise for diving and snorkeling, especially for swimming with manta rays. The gastronomy ranges from simple warungs to chic beach clubs. Access is easy via speedboat from Sanur. Getting around the island is mostly done by scooter, making the exploration of numerous viewpoints and bays an adventure.
