NUSA PENIDA, BALI – Is it Worth Going Down 700 Steps??


So after a torturous ride we made it to this beach. It’s right on the south eastern side of the island and you get to here and it’s a kind of a temple and apparently 700 steps down to the beach We’re going to see what we feel like But right now nobody is in a mood to drive back and it’s quite understandable because you come down from that mountain on a little very small road that’s so eroded. There is no more surface left and On the downhill, four people on the scooter on the downhill is very bad because the brakes are on the limits so you brake full if you push those pedals all the way to the grip and it’s still going say you’re on the limits of the brakes and Then you have all the passengers from behind leaning on you so it’s quite tiring So right now we hope it is worth it There’s a breeze again so it’s quite nice but you can see the ocean is far below so it’s gonna be a tough one going down and our legs are still stiff from yesterday’s heavy climb So once again serious steps down and it’s zigzagging down a straight cliff so there’s not a lot of room for for the steps or the stairs we just passed another tourist coming up from the way from the down all the way up and he said that you walks straight into the water and it’s not really worth it and the photo opportunities are all up here so the kids are a bit disappointed So we’ve decided I’m gonna go down and see if it’s worth it or not.

The kids are gonna stay on the steps and Eben’s still a bit higher up busy with the drone so just look at these zigzag steps Hectic So the road continues Okay all right I think the end is in sight. Let’s see Beautiful See it’s high tide Right there is ATUH beach where we were yesterday And it seems to me it ends just there Time to take on these steps back up and warn the kids it’s not for them So coming to this beach, stay at the top, take beautiful pictures It’s worth it staying at the top.

Nothing much down here. Don’t know what it’s like in low tide but At least I’m burning all the calories from the fried rice and the fried noodles This is just killing me Really I wouldn’t say it was worth this All right so this was it for our beach adventure I went out with the drone luckily, so I saw there were no beach but Melanie took all the way down and went all the way down and there were no beach beach because it’s high tide so if you’re looking for a beach experience don’t come to this place in high tide Low tide, a different story, it’s beautiful but during high tide, no ways, don’t do that Okay, we’re having a cookie break Is it a biscuit or cookie? Or a cookie break we just got…

We just We’ve just been to the beach without a beach Where you don’t go in high tide because and it’s like this all the way but you can see The tarmac, the surface of the tarmac is gone in places and that’s what makes it so bumpy But we are pushing on. But right now, it’s still early and we have one or two more destinations we want to go and see it’s a humongous leave it’s a manga sleep it’s coming from these trees and a coda according to the teacher and Kyla this is not a rubber tree Yeah it’s it’s tears coming all the way, that’s actually do you know what this is this actually ants It’s ants that build these walkways up the tree Hello I think they’re doing their homework Which way? There or there? Hard butt becomes soft butt We are finished here on the eastern side of Nusa Penida We stayed here at manta view sea view cottages for two days A very decent place No hot water and very, salty water so you never feel really clean because it’s too much salt but for the price not bad, they include breakfast It’s probably best to go with the nasi goreng or Mie Goreng otherwise you just get two eggs and a toast but it was enough for us and the prices are really good it’s like 15,000 for a breakfast everything’s 15,000 Yesterday wasn’t too good we we went to the one beach that was under water so the Steps or the stairs terminate down into the ocean so it couldn’t get on to the beach and there was No, beach you’ll see on the drone footage then we wanted to push on to another Beach or the waterfall that terminates in a pool but we missed the turn and by the time we realize it we were up in the mountain again and it was just too far to turn around so yesterday wasn’t very productive at all but now we’re going to the western side and I think it’s called Bintang Hostel or something We’re gonna stay there for two days and we can do that side of the island which will be the Broken Beach the T-Rex and a couple of other places So we’re very excited to move.

Time again so all the luggage on the scooter and very uncomfortable ride to our next destination but luckily the road there shouldn’t be too bad the outside just as nice quite windy as you can hear perhaps very windy The road passing right underneath it’s not a very busy road It’s quiet at night.

Swimming pool on that side Beautiful swimming pool Packed and off to our next destination and this is all our luggage.
