Angel Billabong, Natural infinity pool in Nusa Penida, Indonesia
Angel Billabong is a natural rock pool on the southwestern coast of Nusa Penida filled with clear water and bounded by limestone cliffs. The formation opens toward the Indian Ocean, creating a water-filled basin carved directly from the landscape.
Ocean waves have shaped this volcanic rock formation over many centuries through constant erosion. The relentless action of water carved out the hollow basin that exists today.
The pool gets its name from its wing-like shape when viewed from above. People visit to experience the raw power of nature and feel connected to the landscape that surrounds them.
Check tide schedules before visiting and only swim during low tide, as currents and waves become hazardous otherwise. The safest time to enter the water is a few hours after low tide when conditions remain calm.
The rock walls display natural color patterns that shift throughout the day as sunlight bounces off the water surface. These color shifts result from the minerals in the stone and the changing angle of the sun.
