Renting a scooter for a day costs about 70,000 Rp. Scooters are a quick and affordable way to get around the island, allowing you to avoid most traffic jams. However, it’s important to be careful because the roads on the island are often narrow and poorly maintained.
When driving a scooter, don’t forget:
- Helmet (on your head) – An essential part of safe riding
- International Driver’s License – Make sure you have a valid international driver’s license that allows you to legally drive on Nusa Penida.
- Vehicle Registration – Ensure the scooter has a valid vehicle registration and is in good condition for safe riding.
The International Driver’s Licence
On Nusa Penida, the International Driver’s License is valid according to the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic of 1968. To obtain this license, you need to already have a valid driver’s license. The application for an International Driver’s License, including its issuance, can only be made in person at an office with extended jurisdiction. It is issued immediately upon payment of a fee of 50 CZK.
