From Sanur Harbor to Nusa Lembongan, it only takes about 35 minutes by boat. Once on the island, take a scooter to Devil's Tears and park in the designated area. You need to walk from the parking area to visit the main spot of Devil's Tears. 

When is the Best Time to Visit Devil's Tears?

Devils Tears on Nusa Lembongan is a must-visit destination in Nusa Lembongan, but it can get crowded. Nusa Lembongan has been gaining popularity lately for its iconic spots including Devil's Tears. Make sure you come at the right time during the driest months.

Choose a time to visit the Nusa Islands from July to August. During these months, the weather is quite good although there is a mix of wetness too if you are not lucky enough. The peak seasons to avoid are May and October.

Then when is the best time to visit Devils Tears? You can choose to leave early in the morning or late in the afternoon. The sunset view at Devil's Tears is quite famous so you might encounter many other tourists.

However, since there are quite a few cool sunset spots in Nusa Lembongan, the number of tourists can be evenly distributed to various locations. 

Devil's Tears Tour Safety Tips

Devil's Tears is quite a challenging destination to visit. It's different from just visiting the beach or relaxing on the hill. From the top of the cliff, you can witness amazing views but it can be quite dangerous. As a Nusa Lembongan tour guide, I will share some safety tips when visiting Devils Tears.

1. Wear the Best Sandals or Shoes

Use footwear that won't make you slip easily. Many of the rocks on top of the cliff are quite sharp so you need to wear strong footwear. If you wear sandals, make sure they fit well to avoid slipping out of control. 

2. Avoid Approaching the Cliff

The view from the top of the cliff is amazing, but it's best to avoid it as much as possible. When the waves are strong and large, they can sweep so far away. 

3. Visit During Low Tide

You can ask the tour guide when the low tide is. During high tide, the waves become so ferocious and dangerous.
