Gramvousa & Balos Lagoon Excursion

We'll meet at the indicated time in Malia. From there, we'll head west until we reach Skaleta, a small town where we will stop for breakfast.

After breakfast, we'll proceed to Kissamos to board a boat to the island of Gramvousa. As we approach, we will admire the island's beauty, known as 'Pirates Island.' From the boat, we will witness a unique geological phenomenon: the simultaneous lifting and sinking of both sides of the island.

Upon arrival at Gramvousa, we'll visit the Venetian fortress and explore the island's pirate history, enjoying views of the surrounding area. There will be free time to relax on the beaches, swim in the crystalline waters, explore the famous shipwreck, and sunbathe.

In the afternoon, the group will return to the boat to visit Balos Lagoon. This beach is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Crete, offering more free time to enjoy the sun and natural beauty before we return to our starting point.

The tour will end after a total of 16 hours.
