pantai beach
Mushroom Bay, Nusa Lembongan: the boat bay, and is it your base?
Mushroom Bay is a small bay on the south-west coast of Nusa Lembongan, the island beside Nusa Penida in Bali, Indonesia. It is where The Tanis Fast Cruise and Wijaya Buyuk state their boats from Sanur land. Stays sit around the bay, from a homestay to a three-bedroom house. It is 1.0 km in a straight line from Mushroom Bay to Devil's Tear; Dream Beach is 1.0 km in a straight line from the bay. Base yourself here if you want to step off the boat close to your bed and reach the south-west coves; pick Jungutbatu if you want a village around you.

Mushroom Bay drawn: where the boats land and where you sleep
The plan shows Lembongan's south-west corner from the coastline and points OpenStreetMap holds. The bay opens to the north, and the boat mark sits in its water where the two operators say they land. Beside it: what each operator states, the lettered straight lines to the coves, and the six stays Booking.com lists in the bay with their prices.

pulau island
Is Mushroom Bay the right base on Lembongan?
Choose Mushroom Bay if
- you want the boat to bring you into the bay where you sleep: The Tanis Fast Cruise and Wijaya Buyuk both name it as their stop;
- you want Sandy Bay, Devil's Tear and Dream Beach close by, all within about a kilometre in a straight line;
- you want a choice of beds from a homestay to a private house, all listed in one small area.
Look elsewhere if
- you want a village around you: Jungutbatu, on the north-west beach, is 3.0 km in a straight line away;
- your boat lands by the Yellow Bridge: that landing is across the island, 2.4 km in a straight line from the bay;
- you want a quiet beach without boats coming and going in front of it.
perahu boat
Fast boat from Sanur to Mushroom Bay
Sanur to Nusa Lembongan takes 30 to 45 minutes, as 5 operators state it. The Tanis Fast Cruise and Wijaya Buyuk name Mushroom Bay as their stop on the island. The Tanis Fast Cruise states it boards from the pontoon at Sanur Port and docks at its Mushroom Bay private jetty, with no wet landing, so you step off onto concrete rather than into the shallows. That matters with a hard suitcase, a pram or anyone who would rather not wade.
Wijaya Buyuk lists departures from Sanur to Mushroom Bay at 7:30, 8:30, 9:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00, and a one-way fare of IDR 200,000 (about AUD 16, USD 11 or GBP 8.3). Those are the times on its own schedule page as listed in November 2026. Timetables change with the season and the sea, and an operator or the harbour authority may cancel a sailing, so confirm the day before.
Other boats land elsewhere on Lembongan: Rocky Fast Cruise from Sanur at its private harbour in Telatak, near the Yellow Bridge; Eka Jaya at the Yellow Bridge, sailing from Padang Bai and Serangan rather than Sanur; and Scoot on a beach where you wade ashore. Who lands where, with every listed time and fare, is on Sanur to Nusa Lembongan. If your bed is in Mushroom Bay, a boat that lands here leaves no transfer from another landing; one that lands by the bridge puts the Yellow Bridge 2.4 km in a straight line from the bay, across the island by road.
Booking platforms also sell tickets that bundle several operators. The Klook ticket below covers several boats and departure times and does not name its landing in the listing text, so check where your sailing lands before you pay.
Crossing to the big island instead? The fast boat to Nusa Penida page covers those boats.

pasir sand
Mushroom Beach: the sand, the boats and the evening
Some maps and listings call it Mushroom Beach; it is the same bay. Seen from the headland, it is a curve of sand between two low points, with boats moored off the shore. The plan above shows why: the coast bends in here and the bay opens to the north, towards the boats coming over from Bali.
It is a working beach as much as a lounging one. Fast boats and jukung, the outrigger boats of Bali, come and go through the day, and the sand is shared with that traffic. If you want quiet sand, the coves further along the coast are the ones to walk to; if you like watching the boats come in with a drink in hand, this is the bay.
Before you swim anywhere on Lembongan, read the Australian and US governments' water advice for Indonesia and what officials state about the south-west coves, set out on the Dream Beach page. For time in the water with a crew, see snorkelling around Nusa Penida. Boards and waves are on surfing on Nusa Lembongan, and the rest of the island's stops on things to do on Nusa Lembongan.

jalan road
From Mushroom Bay to Devil's Tear, Dream Beach and Jungutbatu
The south-west corner is the reason to stay here. Sandy Bay is the next cove south along the shore, then Devil's Tear, the rock shelf where waves break at the island's corner, and Dream Beach beside it. All three lie within about a kilometre of the bay in a straight line. The Dream Beach, Sandy Bay and Devil's Tear page draws the three coves and says what officials state about the cliff.
Jungutbatu, the village on the north-west beach, is 3.0 km in a straight line. The Yellow Bridge to Nusa Ceningan is across the island, and the Blue Lagoon on Ceningan beyond it. Nusa Penida's west coast faces you across the strait, but the way to Crystal Bay or Kelingking Beach is by boat; the Nusa Penida day trip page shows how such a day runs.
The ladder beside this text gives straight lines between map points, not routes, and this page gives no travel times. Ask your stay how its guests get around, by scooter, by car or on foot, before you plan a tight day.

retribusi levy
Levies on Nusa Lembongan
Klungkung Regency, which covers Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, charges the visitor levies on the islands. Its levy poster published in February 2026, under Regulation No. 8 of 2023, states one levy ticket covers Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Ceningan.
Its later Regulation No. 4 of 2026 lists the island of Nusa Lembongan and Ceningan as a tourism area of its own (kawasan wisata pulau nusa lembongan-ceningan), subject to the recreation levy and separate from Nusa Penida island. That text sets no separate amount. Ask your boat operator or stay how the levy is collected when you arrive. The Bali tourist levy is a separate provincial charge, explained on the Bali tourist tax page. Rupiah on this page are converted at Bank Indonesia rates of 13 November 2026.
pertanyaan questions
Mushroom Bay questions
Which boats go to Mushroom Bay?
The Tanis Fast Cruise and Wijaya Buyuk name Mushroom Bay as their landing. The Tanis Fast Cruise states it docks at its own jetty in the bay, and Wijaya Buyuk lists Sanur to Mushroom Bay departures at 7:30, 8:30, 9:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00. Other boats land at Telatak or the Yellow Bridge (Eka Jaya from Padang Bai and Serangan) or on a beach. Timetables change, and an operator may cancel a sailing in rough seas.
Is there a jetty at Mushroom Bay?
Yes, as The Tanis Fast Cruise states it: the operator says it docks at its own concrete jetty at Mushroom Bay, with no wet landing, after boarding from the pontoon at Sanur Port. Wijaya Buyuk names the bay as its stop without describing the landing, so ask your operator how you step ashore before you pack a hard suitcase.
Is Mushroom Bay a good place to stay on Nusa Lembongan?
It suits you if you want to arrive by boat close to your bed and reach Sandy Bay, Devil's Tear and Dream Beach nearby. Booking.com lists six stays in the bay, from a homestay to a three-bedroom house. Jungutbatu suits a village base better. The where to stay in Nusa Lembongan page compares all five stretches of coast.
How far is Mushroom Bay from Devil's Tear and Dream Beach?
Devil's Tear is 1.0 km in a straight line from Mushroom Bay, and Dream Beach 1.0 km in a straight line. Sandy Bay lies between them, 0.8 km in a straight line from the bay. These are map distances, not routes, so ask your stay how guests usually get there.
Do you pay a levy to visit Nusa Lembongan?
Klungkung Regency charges visitor levies on its islands. Its February 2026 poster states one levy ticket covers Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan, and Regulation No. 4 of 2026 lists Lembongan and Ceningan as a levy area of its own, without a separate amount in that text. The Bali tourist levy is a separate provincial charge.
