Guide to Tamarind Bay, Nusa Lembongan

Guide to Tamarind Bay: Your Hidden Escape on Nusa Lembongan

Tamarind Bay is one of Nusa Lembongan’s most peaceful pockets — a sheltered curve of turquoise water tucked between Jungutbatu and Mushroom Bay. With calm mornings, epic sunsets, and front-row views of Mount Agung, it’s a favourite for travellers who want the best of both worlds: close to everything, yet quietly tucked away.

Whether you’re planning a family holiday or a solo escape, here’s your guide to staying and dining around Tamarind Bay.

Where to Eat

Tamarind Bay is more secluded than busier pockets of Lembongan — and that’s part of its charm. While there are fewer restaurants within immediate walking distance, the area is home to two standout dining experiences:

  • Tales Bookcafé – Just a step away from Tamarind Beach, this independent café offers a cosy spot for coffee, books and board games in a relaxed setting.
  • The Playful Table at Morin Resort – A thoughtful, plant-based dining experience with creative plates and warm hospitality.

Most villas in this area also offer in-villa dining menus, so you can enjoy breakfast by your pool, sunset canapés, or family dinners without leaving your holiday home.

If you’re looking to explore more dining options around the island — including restaurants that provide free shuttle service or food delivery — you can check our full list HERE.

Why Tamarind Bay?

Quiet, scenic, and incredibly central, Tamarind Bay is the kind of place that makes holidays feel effortless. Stay steps from the water, eat well, and savour the slower moments that make Nusa Lembongan so special.

Travel Insurance 101

How Travel Insurance Works for Your Bali or Lembongan Trip

Travel insurance isn’t just a box to tick—it’s a clear process that protects you before and during your trip. Here’s how it really works, with examples from Bali and Nusa Lembongan.

Travel Insurance Nusa Lembongan

Choosing Your Policy

Start by deciding what kind of cover you need. Are you only looking for basic medical coverage, or do you want cancellation, luggage, and activity protection? For Australian travellers heading to Bali, Cover-More offers Basic, Comprehensive, or Comprehensive+ plans that include medical emergencies, evacuation, trip cancellations, theft, and adventure sports like snorkelling or diving in Nusa Lembongan.

If you’re a frequent traveller, Cover-More also offers an Annual Multi-Trip policy, which covers an unlimited number of trips within a 12-month period, up to the maximum trip duration you choose.

Buying Your Policy

Purchase insurance as soon as you book flights or accommodation. This ensures you’re covered if you need to cancel due to unexpected illness or accidents before departure. Policies can be purchased online through Cover-More, where you’ll get an instant confirmation and policy number.

What’s Covered (and What’s Not)

Typical claims include medical treatment (e.g., a scooter accident in Lembongan), stolen items, or trip delays (like ferry cancellations between Sanur and Jungutbatu). However, you won’t be covered if you ride a motorbike without a valid licence or ignore local safety rules. Pre-existing conditions might also require additional cover.

How to Claim

If something happens, notify Cover-More as soon as possible. Keep receipts, medical reports, or police statements for proof. Claims can be submitted online, and many are processed within 5–10 working days. Urgent medical claims are prioritised and often settled faster.

Why It Matters

Medical evacuation from Bali to Australia can cost over $50,000. Travel insurance is a small price for peace of mind, letting you enjoy paradise without worry.

Before you finalise your holiday plans, make sure you have reliable travel insurance like Cover-More to protect your trip, health, and belongings—so you can fully enjoy Nusa Lembongan activities and adventures without worry.

Explore Sandy Bay Nusa Lembongan

Guide to Sandy Bay,Nusa Lembongan

Explore Sandy Bay: A Perfect Slow Day on Nusa Lembongan

Tucked into the southwest corner of Nusa Lembongan, Sandy Bay is the kind of place that invites you to slow down. Think barefoot afternoons, salty breezes, and golden-hour views. If you’re craving a laid-back day filled with gentle adventure and a touch of indulgence, this one’s for you.

Ease in with Dream Beach & Devil’s Tears

Start your day with a little adventure. Dream Beach is just a short scooter ride away – a postcard-perfect beach with soft white sand and turquoise waves. While it’s not ideal for swimming due to strong currents, it’s a stunning spot to relax, dip your toes, and soak up the view. After a slow wander along the shore, follow the coastal path to Devil’s Tears, where crashing waves and dramatic spray put on a show – nature’s version of a wake-up call.

Island-inspired shopping

After exploring, head inland and drop by Nalu Home Decor. This coastal boutique is filled with treasures – from home décor, rings and bracelets, and flowy dresses to artisanal tropical accessories like woven hats and beach bags. It’s a lovely place to find a little piece of the island to take home.

Time to Unwind

Afternoons are made for pampering. Choose from two of Sandy Bay’s top spas: Glo Day Spa, offering modern treatments and air-conditioned bliss, or Jamu Day Spa, with its all-natural, earthy charm. Whether you go for a classic massage or a full-body ritual, you’ll leave feeling completely renewed.

Dinner & Cocktails at Sandy Bay Beach Club

As golden hour rolls in, make your way to Sandy Bay Beach Club. This iconic oceanfront spot is the place to be for sunset drinks – with a cocktail in hand, toes in the sand, and the kids happily entertained at the Kids Club. Once the sun sets, stay for dinner. The menu is full of fresh seafood, woodfired pizzas, and hearty island favourites. It’s the perfect way to wrap up a slow, sun-kissed day.

Ready to Slow It Down?

Sandy Bay is your go-slow paradise – come for the views, stay for the serenity.

Morin’s Story of Conservation, Morin Resort Nusa Lembongan

Built Mindfully: Morin’s Story of Conservation

Built Mindfully: Morin’s Story of Conservation

At Morin Resort, we believe that a business can, and should, be a force for good. From the materials we build with, to the energy we use, to the way we treat people and the ocean, we are doing our best to operate in a way that protects, uplifts, and regenerates. We don’t claim to have it all figured out, but we are committed to learning, improving and treading as lightly as we can.

Business as a Force for Conservation

Our barefoot-luxury resort is more than just a place to stay, it’s a small platform we hope can help raise awareness and inspire thoughtful action. We see ourselves as students and stewards of the natural world that surrounds us, especially the vibrant marine life that makes Nusa Lembongan island so unique.

As part of our ongoing commitment to conservation, we are proud to support Marine Megafauna Foundation (MMF), whose work focuses on the research and conservation of manta rays, sea turtles and whale sharks. One way we support their efforts is through guided manta ray trips with our private boat, Pari Manta, which aim to be more than a snorkeling experience. These outings are co-hosted by two MMF biologists: one shares knowledge with guests about local marine life and conservation efforts, while the other collects data that directly contributes to ongoing research and the preservation of these species and their habitats. For our guests, it’s a chance to witness ocean conservation in action, and for us, it’s a way to connect tourism with tangible, science-based conservation.

Mindful Materials & Timeless Design

Our commitment to sustainability began with the building of Morin itself. No trees were cut down to make space for the resort. Instead, we chose to build with mostly antique teak, giving a second life to materials that already carried history. Much of the wood you’ll see has been upcycled with care, reflecting a simple belief: we can often work with what’s already here.

To us, sustainability means looking beyond short-term convenience and considering long-term impact. We’re still learning every day, but we try to ask not just ‘what does this cost today?’ but ‘what will this mean tomorrow?’

A Work in Progress: Responsible Operations

Beyond design, we take responsibility for how we operate. Our wastewater is treated before being released, something that should be standard practice, yet still worth mentioning in today’s world. It’s a simple act of respect for the reef and sea around us.

Some everyday examples: we use solar panels to reduce our energy footprint and make small, practical choices that reflect our values, like edible rice straws instead of plastic, refillable glass water bottles, and fans in rooms to reduce reliance on air conditioning. These details may go unnoticed, but they help protect the environment we depend on.

At our restaurant, The Playful Table, we extend this philosophy to the plate. Our menu leans proudly plant-based, celebrating local roots—literally—with ingredients like cassava, the island’s staple crop. We believe travel should remain a journey of discovery, not a repetition of the familiar. After all, what’s the point of going halfway around the world if you’re served the same continental breakfast you could find anywhere?

Around the property, we also share information with guests about local species, like geckos and frogs, to help everyone better understand and peacefully coexist with the wildlife that lives here.

We know we still have more to learn and more to do, and we’re always looking for thoughtful ways to do better, one small step at a time.

Conscious Business Means Conscious People

Sustainability at Morin isn’t just about the environment, it’s also about how we treat each other. We’re gently challenging some of the outdated norms in hospitality, where the guest is seen as king at the expense of the team’s well-being. We don’t believe respect should be a one-way street.

At Morin, our team is the heart of everything. We’re cultivating a safe, supportive space where each individual can grow, personally and professionally. Our workplace isn’t just a resort; it’s a playground for growth, a place where people are encouraged to be themselves and thrive.

And when we welcome you to Morin, we hope it’s not just about service, but about connection. To each other. To nature. And to yourself.

A New Kind of Luxury

We are still learning. Still growing. But we believe in a kind of luxury that gives back, one that is rooted in respect, care and purpose.

If you choose to stay with us, we hope you leave lighter, inspired and perhaps even a little more connected to this beautiful planet we all share.

Come experience a new kind of luxury, one that gives back, grows together and leaves the world better than we found it.

Our team is always here to help you have the perfect Lembongan stay and arrange the boat transfers for your next island getaway.

Nusa Penida vs Nusa Lembongan

Nusa Penida or Nusa Lembongan: Picking Your Island Paradise

Let us explain some of the differences between the two islands, so you can consider your preferences and decide if Nusa Penida or Nusa Lembongan is for you.

Nestled southeast of Bali, Indonesia, the neighbouring islands of Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan have emerged as sought-after tourist destinations, each offering a distinct set of experiences for travellers seeking a tropical escape.

Big or Small?

Nusa Penida is the big brother, 210 km² with wild and untamed coastlines giving it a rugged vibe. On the flip side, Nusa Lembongan is the smaller sibling, with a laid-back village vibe, offering significantly more developed tourism friendly areas, with a total of 9 km² including Nusa Ceningan.

Penida vs Lembongan

Scenic Views Alert!

Nusa Penida is the go-to for jaw-dropping cliffs and incredible landscapes. Kelingking Beach and Angel’s Billabong are Insta-worthy spots you can’t miss. Expect to line up under the sun to get your perfect IG pics with Kelingking beach as your backdrop!

But if you’re more of a beach bum who loves ocean swims, and enjoying your time away from the screen, Nusa Lembongan has its own draw cards with Dream Beach and Mushroom Bay – pure paradise!

Chill or Thrill?

Penida is wild and raw, with more cars navigating thrilling hills and turns due to the island’s vast distances. However, it’s important to note that a single day trip might not be enough on Penida, as exploring both the east and west parts of the island is near on impossible to do all in one day.

However, Lembongan and Ceningan are all about ease, offering various transport options such as motorbikes (with driver options), pick-up trucks, or renting a buggy to explore the island’s charm. The good news is, a day trip on Lembongan is very much possible, allowing you to soak in the laid-back atmosphere and enjoy the island’s highlights without feeling rushed.

Whether you crave a wild road adventure on Penida or a laid-back exploration with diverse transport choices on Lembongan, both islands promise a unique escape.

Fun in the Water: To Surf or Not To Surf?

Penida is the spot for diving and snorkelling enthusiasts, with vibrant marine life buzzing beneath the waters. These can be easily accessed when staying on either Lembongan or Penida. However, it’s important to note that surfing isn’t an option in Nusa Penida.

On the other hand, Lembongan offers tranquil waters perfect for snorkelling, diving, or simply swimming from the shore – the choice is yours. What’s more, if you’re a fan of riding the waves, Lembongan boasts four fantastic surf breaks. These breaks are strategically situated on the western side of the island, lining the router-reef parallel to Jungutbatu, the main village of Nusa Lembongan. Nusa Ceningan also offers Mahana Point, a famous left hand surf break and also cliff jumping spot where you can leap into the ocean from different heights or simply sit back with a cold bintang and take in the action in the turquoise waters below.

So, whether you’re exploring the ocean depths or catching waves, both Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan cater to a diverse range of water adventures.

Getting There, Quick Hop or Longer Journey

Nusa Penida demands a bit more commitment as it involves a longer boat ride, approximately 45 minutes, from Bali. On the other hand, Lembongan, being closer, offers a shorter journey of around 30 minutes from Bali – making it ideal for those planning a quick day-trip from the mainland. Whether you’re up for a slightly longer voyage to Penida or a quicker jaunt to Lembongan, both islands promise an exciting escape just a boat ride away from the bustling vibes of Bali.

Fun Fact: Fueling Up on the Islands

Here’s a cool fact for your island trip: in Nusa Penida, there are two service stations to fill up your tank with petrol. But in Nusa Lembongan, there’s only one, and you have to cross the Yellow bridge to Nusa Ceningan to find it and get ready to be in a long queue! No worries, though! If you ever need petrol, you’ll find plenty of friendly folks selling gas right on the streets of both Nusa Penida and Lembongan.
