GEOBI® - this place isn't worthy of entering your travel-bucket-list

G E O B I ( Golden Egg Of Bali Island ® ) It is said that many people are starting to get bored if they are on holiday in Bali, where have they been asked to change, the answer must have been in unison, that spot again, spot a million people. Wehee, let's just take a look at another spot, which is still very far in the Bali area.

Between conscious or not, if you open a map of Bali, there will definitely be 3 islands in the lower right, which are of medium size - small and large. Many have seen it at a glance, but haven't known it yet? Well, let's get acquainted.

Three sister islands in the southeastern corner of Bali, yes three-musketeer from south-east of Bali, Nusa Lembongan - Nusa Ceningan and Nusa Penida. Of these 3 siblings, call the top-center-and bottom. At the top and the middle of a package of siblings, which are only linked by the spring bridge (suspension-bridge), Nusa Lembongan and below it are the cutest of Nusa Ceningan, these two siblings are arguably more famous than the biggest ones.

Good news for you who are addicted to the smell of the sea or like to wash their eyes with a view of the seabed, these three islands including paradise! Many spots must be dived, if you start from Nusa Lembongan, you can start from Jungut beach. It's not difficult to find a boat rental service, a 5-minute walk on the coast is usually someone who offers. Well, the portion of the discussion on Nusa Lembongan and Ceningan will be written in the next post. Now let's focus on those who have not yet nurtured. Yes, Nusa Penida is the biggest island.

The Golden Egg of Bali

Even though the name is still dim-lit on the ear, it doesn't mean this place isn't worthy of entering your travel-bucket-list. The island is far from the turmoil of city life included in the world coral triangle (the Global Coral Triangle made by WWF; besides Nusa Penida there are still Savu Sea Flores, and Wakatobi). Yes, this island is designated as marine conservation, which means that the underwater ecosystem is protected and preserved, both coral reefs and fish. So don't be surprised if you like snorkeling a lot of colorful fish and coral reefs.

For underwater affairs, the area here is indeed the champion, calling snorkeling diving spots (Mangrove, Gamat Bay, Crystal Bay, Manta Cove, Manta Point) enough to rent a boat then we will be invited to tour the 3-5 legendary spots. And since this trip does not include underwater expeditions, so we will skip about the underwater. We continue to discuss what appears on the surface ๐Ÿ™‚

In terms of fate, this island can be said to have not been as fortunate as its two siblings, Lembongan and Ceningan, clearly visible from tourist attractions that are still rarely processed. The lack of a signboard to the "legendary" spots, is still a lack of restaurants or cafes to just drink beautiful coffee. But behind this hit is not what makes the atmosphere here somewhat different.

Well, for those who have the soul of nature-seekers, like the smells of nature / scenery, there will be many eyegasm events here. Call the spots like Pasih Uug, Seganing Springs, Temeling Springs, Guyangan Springs, Atuh Beach, PED, Puncak Mundi, etc. Almost all of the spots have different packaging than those in Bali, the majority are still natural, without parking, without the ticket ticket window, without public toilets, and difficult access. So it's really natural: 'D, So, let’s the journey begin ๐Ÿ™‚

Look and feel

Okay talking about the Nusa Penida casing is complicated, honest writing is complicated, but let 's try. As soon as we land at Toyapakeh, we will be welcomed with a view of fishing boats that are neatly parked, complete with Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan to the west of the background. Sliding slightly facing north we can see the highest mountain in Bali, Gunung Agung. Ok, then just a little, there are a lot of nowel masses for transport motorbikes, well, about the prices that are pegged usually depends on the season (80-120rb / day - more expensive? Yes, you know there are not as many motorbike rentals in Bali) . And it is recommended to rent a motorbike instead of walking ... this is not Gili Trawangan, which is only 2 hours walk, it is affordable, except you are a true adventurous soul: ’)

Continue to shift to the south, to the center of the island, maybe the feel is already different, the expectations were hoping to wash your eyes in green, starting to feel a little disappointed ... ๐Ÿ˜€ because the majority of the view in the middle is arid yellow: ' : arid, dry, barren en. Because it is said that this island is a formation of limestone with rocky soil conditions, and with a minimum availability of fresh water. So you can be sure the lack of fertile land for farming is the cause of barren everywhere ๐Ÿ™„

Geographically, this small island has a conical shape on its middle side, and almost all access from north to south or from east to west must always pass main road in the middle of the island. For smart-travelers, you must check the map of this island, at least so there is a picture where you will anchor, where good spots
