Tembeling Beach, Nusa Penida, Bali - Review & Walk Through

Me and my family spent the morning at Tembeling Beach. On the island of Nusa Penida, next to Bali, it's the perfect location to chill and unwind. The best part about this spot is that it has a couple of freshwater pools. So if want to wash off the sea or need to cool down, these pools are perfect. One word of advice is the single person-wide path that leads down to the beach from the main road. This is fine for walking but only the experienced scooter driver should attempt this route. As alternative is to leave your scooter at the top of the hill and pay a local scooter taxi driver to take you down, at very low cost. Google mas takes you to the wrong place, in this video I show you where to go.

From mid-2024, my wife and I quit our jobs and took our children out of school to pursue a nomadic lifestyle around the world. We had spent 17 years working our socks off in the "great" rat race of Western culture and had had enough, and so took the plunge and decided to wing it.
