Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island Boat Tour

At the scheduled time, we will meet at Kissamos port to begin our Crete boat tour.

We will navigate by rocky cliffs, caves, and secret coves, crossing the Aegean Sea. The boat will proceed along the island of Crete, showcasing the elevation changes on its western and eastern coasts. At the end of Kissamos Bay, we will reach Gramvousa Island and Cape Vouxa, where scenic views of the Valenti, Pontikonisi, and Balos lagoons await.

Depending on weather conditions, we will stop for 2 hours in Gramvousa or 2.5 hours in Balos lagoon, allowing free time for swimming and exploration. In Gramvousa, guests can visit the beach with the remains of a shipwreck or ascend to the castle of Gramvousa.

If we visit the lagoon of Balos, it offers the chance to enjoy a stunning beach with turquoise waters and pink sand. Onboard, a variety of food options will be available for purchase.

Finally, we will return to Kissamos port, concluding the tour approximately seven hours after departure.
