Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island Boat Tour
We will meet at the Kissamos port at the scheduled time and embark on our Crete boat tour.

Eventually, we will reach Gramvousa Island and Cape Vouxa, where you can enjoy views of Valenti, Pontikonisi, and Balos lagoons.
Depending on weather conditions, we will stop for 2 hours in Gramvousa or 2.5 hours in Balos lagoon, allowing free time to swim and explore on your own. In Gramvousa, you can visit its beach, home to a shipwreck, or hike to the castle of Gramvousa.
