• Photography at the cliff viewpoint and on the stairs

• Swimming in calm conditions (check for currents first)
• Snorkeling near the reef when sea conditions are calm
• Boat trips combining Diamond Beach with Atuh Beach and snorkeling spots

Dry season (April–October) is the best time for calm seas, clearer water, and more reliable boat access. Early morning offers the best light for photos and fewer crowds.

Tropical — hot and humid year-round. Dry season: sunny and drier. Wet season (November–March): heavier rains, rougher seas, and limited visibility for snorkeling.

Diamond Beach is on Nusa Penida (Island): take a fast boat from Sanur (Bali) or Padangbai to Nusa Penida harbor (Toyapakeh/Buyuk). From the harbor it's a rough 30–60 minute drive over uneven roads to the eastern side of the island. On-island transport: hire a local driver/4WD car or rent a scooter if experienced. Not suitable for visitors with limited mobility due to steep stairs and uneven terrain.

Plan half a day to a full day if combining Diamond Beach with Atuh Beach and nearby viewpoints. Allocate time for the boat transfer to/from Nusa Penida and rough road travel.

Sturdy shoes for the stairs and rocky terrain, swimwear, quick-dry towel, sun protection (hat, sunscreen), enough drinking water, waterproof phone/camera case, and a small first-aid kit. Bring a lightweight jacket for windy mornings.

Local warungs offer simple dishes like grilled fish, nasi campur, mie goreng, and snacks such as pisang goreng. Souvenirs: handwoven bags, local batik items, small handicrafts from Nusa Penida vendors. Carry cash (IDR) as card facilities are limited.
