Welcome
to
Padangbai
Padangbai has for a while
attracted travelers who like to stay here on their way
to or from Lombok. There are also public boats leaving
regularly from here to Nusa Penida. The village is located
in the bottom of a lovely bay, dominated by the ferry
terminal and a long beach surrounded by green hills.
A lot of the population are fishermen, indicated by
the large number of boats along the beach
One a perfect bay lined
with colourful "prahu" and picturesque views
of Nusa Penida.
It is the port for Bali-Lombok
ferries and passenger boats to Nusa Penida. A popular
travellers' stop, offering excellent diving and snorkelling,
walks to nearby beaches, it has a relaxed ambience.
And I think I found a
good stop for kitesurfing, I checked about 15 knots
and nice swell for jumping, so it will be for next trip
!
