Sampalan Port is one of the main gateways to Nusa Penida, especially for travelers heading to the island’s eastern region. Located in Sampalan village, this harbor provides an alternative to other busy ports such as Toyapakeh and Banjar Nyuh port. For those who want to explore Atuh Beach, Diamond Beach, or the famous Tree House Molenteng, Sampalan Harbor is often the most convenient entry point.
The port is situated on the northeast side of Nusa Penida, around 20 minutes from the island’s capital, Sampalan Town. Visitors can reach the port by car or motorbike, and public transport is available from nearby villages. Its strategic location makes it easy for travelers who want to access the eastern side of the island without having to drive across Nusa Penida.
While not as large as Toyapakeh Port, Sampalan Harbor offers the essential facilities for passengers. You can find small ticket counters, waiting areas, parking spots for cars and motorbikes, and several convenience stores around the area. There are also warungs (local eateries) nearby where travelers can enjoy simple meals before boarding the boat.
Several fast boat operators use Sampalan Harbor as a departure and arrival point. Boats mainly connect Nusa Penida with Kusamba in Bali, making it a practical choice for those who are staying around Candidasa, Padangbai, or Sidemen. The boat schedule may vary depending on weather and sea conditions, so it is recommended to check the latest timetable with your fast boat provider.
The Port is located in Batununggul Village, Nusa Penida, Klungkung Regency, Bali, and is only about:
15 minutes from Atuh Beach
