## Corrections to claims found elsewhere

- The Nusa Penida area fee (IDR 25,000 adult) is separate from the Bali levy (IDR 150,000); paying one does not cover the other.
- Swimming at Kelingking Beach has been banned since February 2023; the lift to the beach is not open.
- A day trip does not cover every listed sight: roads are slow, and most tours do one side well or both quickly.
- Manta rays are not guaranteed; operators put Manta Bay sightings at about 30% of trips.
