Travel by speedboat across azure waters and get ready to explore the history, culture and natural beauty of the paradise that is Nusa Penida Island. Begin with a visit to Goa Giri Putri, a colossal underground temple, learn about seaweed farming and Batik weaving from the local community and enjoy some time paddling, snorkelling and relaxing on a secluded beach.
To make our tour a little unique, we stop by and assist a local seaweed farmer as they fight to bring back the historic art form of seaweed farming.
Join designer, businesswoman and owner of fashion label ‘Strange but Cool’ – Tina Lim – for an excursion that will educate and entertain. This exclusive half-day tour includes an enchanting visit to Lim’s meticulously curated collection of historical handbags at the Museum of Vintage Bags as well as an intimate workshop where she teaches how to turn ordinary plastic refuse into charming handicrafts.
