Suwehan Beach in Nusa Penida
Discover Suwehan Beach's dramatic cliff descent and Love Rock view, a quieter stop for guests exploring Nusa Penida's east side.
About Suwehan Beach
Suwehan Beach is a hidden beach on the east coast of Nusa Penida, framed by
high limestone cliffs and a broad sweep of white sand. The setting feels more
remote and less commercial than the island's better-known viewpoints, which is
a big part of its appeal for guests looking for quieter scenery.
The beach is famous for a tall triangular limestone rock formation known as
Batu Chinta (Love Rock) that rises from the sea just offshore, creating one of
the most photogenic landscapes on the island and giving the bay a very distinct identity.
Visitors reach the beach by descending a staircase carved into the cliffside.
The walk down usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes and offers wide coastal views
along the way, so the experience begins before you even reach the sand.
Suwehan Beach is located near Atuh Beach and Diamond Beach, but it is usually
chosen by travelers who want something quieter and less standard than the most
heavily photographed east-coast route.
Suwehan Beach is not part of the standard West, East, or Combination Tour.
If you want to include it, we can help arrange a customized private tour
built around your preferred east-side stops.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get to Suwehan Beach?

Is Suwehan Beach safe to visit?
The hike down to Suwehan Beach is steep and can be challenging. Sturdy shoes and plenty of water are essential. The beach itself is beautiful but has strong waves, so swimming should be approached with caution. Visit during the dry season for generally clearer and calmer conditions.
