Beware the waves
We're probably safer seeing these churning waves from high above: Swimming is forbidden on the much-Instagrammed Kelingking Beach due to the violence of the surf seen here. But this unique spot on Indonesia's Nusa Penida Island is well worth the visit, just for a glimpse at the surrounding rocky ridge (often noted for its resemblance to a T. rex). Experienced hikers can make their way to the top, earning a view to rival this spectacular drone's-eye shot.
