TL;DR
Grab may not be available around Nusa Penida’s harbour, while local drivers have quoted around IDR 600,000–800,000 one way to Kelingking Beach. Alternatives include pre-booking a driver or renting a scooter for about IDR 150,000.
For transport around Nusa Penida, consider arranging a driver in advance. A driver can meet you at the harbour, assist with boat tickets, and plan stops such as Manta Point and lunch; hiring someone on arrival may cost more.
Plan an early sunrise trip to Diamond Beach, either with a driver or your own transport, for a better visit.
Grab may not operate near Nusa Penida’s harbour. Local drivers have quoted IDR 600,000–800,000 one way to Kelingking Beach, so confirm the fare and route before leaving.
If you are comfortable riding a scooter, renting one can be far cheaper than private transport: approximately IDR 150,000 was reported for exploring the island independently.
