Staircase to Diamond Beach, Nusa Penida

Descending through rugged cliffs onto the secluded shores of Diamond Beach in Nusa Penida, this image captures the raw beauty of Indonesian island life. Sunlight filters between the limestone formations casting dynamic shadows over the crystal-clear turquoise waters kissing the white sand beach. Palm trees sway gently as distant rock islands punctuate the horizon under an expansive blue sky scattered with wispy clouds.
