Reviews of Ceningan island

What a fantastic island this is, loved every bit of it. It’s the smaller island connected by the yellow bridge to Nusa Lembongan.
Suta Wijaya
Beautiful small island with quiet peaceful area not busy at all
Juju Ramboutan
Our favorite island from the 3 option... More quite and very nice view around... Enjoy to run in small road all around (45 min footing without traffic)
Agung Ananta
Good place, very quiet and calm. You can enjoy sunset here. The sunset is so beautiful. You must visit the iconic landmark her, Jembatan Kuning (Yellow Bridge). You can enjoy sunset there as well. The only one thing that must be fixed is the public facility like roads. But, overall I love to spend my holiday in Nusa Ceningan and Lembongan!!!😍

An amazing island much smaller and quieter than Lembongan with stunning views across to Penida on one side and of the Blue Lagoon on the other.
