Devils Tear Nusa Lembongan is a unique cave pool on the edge of rocky cliffs which can be found on the southwest coast of Nusa Lembongan Island. This is my favorite location on the island with plenty of exploring to be had along this awesome coastline.
HOW TO GET TO DEVILS TEAR NUSA LEMBONGAN
Devils Tear Nusa Lembongan is located around the corner from Dream Beach, which is another one of my favorite beach locations on Nusa Lembongan Island.
From the main tourist hub, it’s a short 10-minute drive through some small local villages that will bring you directly to Devils Tear Nusa Lembongan.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT DEVILS TEAR NUSA LEMBONGAN
Devils Tear Lembongan draws attraction to visitors to see the forceful flow of water entering the cave and spitting it back out again with a roar. The water in Devils Tear Nusa Lembongan is crystal clear and you may be lucky enough to see turtles cruising around in the cove.
Devil’s Tear Nusa Lembongan is one of the best spots on the island to watch the sunset. There are a number of reflection pools along the cliffs where you can get creative and potentially capture some amazing shots.
If you’re up for an adrenaline rush, there are some cliff jumping spots at a smaller cove in front of the reflection pools at Devils Tear Nusa Lembongan. If you do decide to take the leap, you will have to time your jump in between the sets of waves to avoid being caught in a sticky situation.
Reusable Water Bottle: Stay hydrated with Hydro Flask! I take this water bottle with me on all of my adventures. Hydro Flask keeps your water icy cold all day and you’ll also be helping out the environment by reducing the use of single-use plastics.

DEVILS TEAR NUSA LEMBONGAN – THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
I made the mistake of exploring Devils Tear Nusa Lembongan barefoot, which was not ideal because the rocky outcrops are very sharp along this coastline. I recommend wearing suitable footwear when exploring this popular Nusa Lembongan tourist spot.
From my experience having visited all 3 Nusa Islands, here is an overview of how many days I recommend spending on each island:
- Nusa Lembongan – 2 Days
- Nusa Ceningan – 1 Day
- Nusa Penida – 3 Days
