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.

The journey will take us past rocky cliffs, caves, and secret coves while navigating the Aegean Sea. We will skirt Crete's coastline, observing dramatic elevation changes. 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.

At the lagoon of Balos, you can discover its beautiful beach and vibrant turquoise waters, spanning pink sand embellished with shells.
