Nusa Lembongan Island


Nusa Lembongan, a small island between Bali and Nusa Penida in Badung
Strait, is the perfect holiday hideaway with few visitors and pure
un-spoiled beach. Low, protected island about 11 km south-east
mainland Bali, measuring only four by three km and surrounded by mangrove
swamps, and palms and white sandy beaches. Inland terrain is bush
and very dry, with volcanic stonewalls and street processions
cross a small cactus-covered hill. Facing Sanghiang Bay
with the clear blue waters, West Nusa Lembongan Resort offers a panoramic
view see the eastern part of Bali and the graceful silhouette of Mount Agung.
Known for the great surfing, excellent crystal-clear water also makes it
suitable for snorkeling and diving. Still the basic, but
interesting, and there are some beautiful places to live.
