Nusa Penida fees

What fees do you pay to visit Nusa Penida in 2026?

Up to three kinds: the Bali tourist levy (IDR 150,000, once per entry to Bali), the Nusa Penida island fee (IDR 25,000 per adult), and attraction tickets of IDR 25,000 per adult at each ticketed site. Parking is extra if you drive.

The table sums up what a foreign visitor meets in 2026. Child rates apply to ages 4 to 13.

Is the Bali tourist levy the same as the Nusa Penida fee?

No. The Bali levy is a provincial charge of IDR 150,000 paid once when you enter Bali. The Nusa Penida fee is a separate local charge of Klungkung Regency, and paying one does not cover the other.

The levy runs through the official Love Bali system, under Bali Provincial Regulation No. 2 of 2025, which amends Regulation No. 6 of 2023. You pay it online before or on arrival in Bali and get a QR voucher by email; the same page has an exemption form. Nusa Penida is part of Bali province, so crossing over from Sanur does not trigger a second levy.

The island fee is the one people forget. sanurharbour.id puts it plainly: paying the Bali levy does not replace the Nusa Penida area or attraction charges. If you have already paid at the airport, you still need IDR 25,000 for the harbour.

How much is the Nusa Penida island fee, and how do you pay it?

IDR 25,000 per adult and IDR 15,000 per child aged 4 to 13, for foreign visitors. Klungkung Regency confirmed the tariff itself has not risen in 2026.

This is the fee often called the retribution. It is charged when you arrive on the island, not per night, and Indonesian visitors are exempt from it. nusapenida.org describes it as paid online with a QR code checked on arrival; the Sanur fast boat listing still tells guests to carry cash for it. Do both: buy it online if you can, and keep IDR 25,000 in notes per person in case the check point asks for cash or the signal drops.

Tours differ on it. The snorkel and west tour, the yacht day and the 2-day trip include it. The west highlights day, the all-inclusive day and the private car exclude it, and the fast boat has you pay it on arrival.

What changed on Nusa Penida on 1 September 2026?

Klungkung Regency Regulation No. 4 of 2026 added attraction tickets on top of the island fee: IDR 25,000 per adult and IDR 15,000 per child at each ticketed site, sold as digital tickets with barcodes.

Klungkung calls it One Gate One Destination. Before, the island fee worked as a single entry that let you carry on to Kelingking, Broken Beach and Angel's Billabong without paying the government again. Now each chargeable attraction (a DTW, or Daya Tarik Wisata) collects its own ticket, from foreign and Indonesian visitors alike.

• Which sites: official coordination named Kelingking Beach, the Molenteng Tree House, Diamond Beach and Atuh Beach (sanurharbour.id); Bali Live's launch report also lists Angel's Billabong, Broken Beach and Crystal Bay.
• How: buy online before you arrive or pay at the site; the barcode is scanned at the entrance. Ticket points run on satellite internet where mobile signal is weak.
• The first days: more than 11,000 transactions on day one and midday queues at Kelingking and Crystal Bay (Bali Live). Klungkung then told drivers to park first and let passengers walk to the counters, and asked guides and agencies to buy tickets before leaving Bali.

The full story of the change is on the blog: the new Nusa Penida fees from September 2026.

How much is the Kelingking Beach entrance fee?

IDR 25,000 per person at the ticket booth that opened at the entrance on 23 October 2026, with the viewpoint and the trail included. Parking is IDR 5,000 for a scooter and IDR 10,000 for a car.

Kelingking is open land and never closes, according to nusapenida.org, though the warungs and parking are staffed from about sunrise to sunset. The ticket covers the walk down as well as the viewpoint. It is optional and steep: 156 built steps, then a path with a bamboo handrail, and swimming below has been banned since February 2023.

Two projects are in the news. On 23 October 2026 Klungkung announced a permanent stairway to replace the path, privately funded at about IDR 3.2 billion with a target of about six months, and the trail stays open during the works. The glass lift begun in 2024 is still halted after being sealed on 31 October 2025, with the case under appeal. Details in the Kelingking Beach 2026 update.

Which Nusa Penida tours include the fees?

The 2-day trip includes all of them. The yacht and snorkel days include the island fee and the spot or beach tickets. The east and west day trip includes the Kelingking, Diamond Beach and Angel's Billabong tickets. The all-inclusive day pays entry and the Tree House but not the island fee.

Every column comes from each tour's own list of what is and is not included. Where a listing says nothing about a fee, the cell says "Carry cash": that is the safe plan on the day. The Bali levy is never part of a tour.

How much should you budget for fees on a Nusa Penida day trip?

For a foreign adult, plan on about IDR 100,000 to 150,000 in island and attraction fees for a day, on top of a tour that does not include them. Tours that include the tickets bring that close to zero.

The arithmetic is simple: IDR 25,000 for the island plus IDR 25,000 per ticketed stop. sanurharbour.id's own example is a foreign adult paying the island fee and three attractions, IDR 100,000 in all. A west day with Kelingking, Broken Beach, Angel's Billabong and Crystal Bay, if each charges the regency rate, comes to IDR 125,000. Add parking if you drive yourself.

• Diamond and Atuh: one shared car park and gate. nusapenida.org listed IDR 35,000 including parking, in cash, in September 2026.
• The Tree House: an entry fee plus a separate photo fee for the platform. The all-inclusive day pays both; the east and west day trip does not.
• Children: IDR 15,000 instead of IDR 25,000 at each step, for ages 4 to 13.
• The Bali levy: IDR 150,000 once per entry to Bali, if you have not paid it already.

When you compare two tours with similar prices, the fee column is often the difference. That is the question sanurharbour.id suggests asking any operator: which Nusa Penida fees are included?

Do you need cash on Nusa Penida?

Yes. Ticketing is going digital, but cards are not widely accepted elsewhere on the island and mobile signal is patchy. Carry rupiah in small notes.

Cash covers the gaps: parking, lunch, drinks, toilets, a fee your tour leaves out, and the extra hour on a private car, which is IDR 100,000 payable to the driver. nusapenida.org says ATMs are concentrated around Toyapakeh, Ped and Sampalan, which is no help once you are at Diamond Beach. Withdraw in Bali before the boat.

Keep a phone with data for the digital tickets, and a screenshot of each barcode in case the signal drops at the gate. For what else to pack and how the day runs, see the Nusa Penida day trip guide.
