Gramvousa and Balos Tour from Chania(Boat ticket is included!)
Overview
Join us for an incredible day of sun, sea, and adventure! We start from Chania Town at 08:00 AM and head towards the port of Kissamos, where our journey by boat begins. After a relaxing 1-hour ferry ride across the turquoise waters, we reach the stunning island of Gramvousa. Here you’ll have two full hours to explore the famous Venetian fortress perched high on the hill, swim in the crystal-clear waters, or simply relax on the golden beach surrounded by wild, untouched beauty. Next, we sail to the world-famous Balos Lagoon, a true paradise of white sands and shallow, turquoise waters. You’ll have three magical hours to swim, sunbathe, explore the unique landscapes, and capture unforgettable photos at one of Crete’s most iconic locations. At around 16:30, we depart from Balos and cruise back to Kissamos Port, arriving around 17:45, where our bus will be waiting to comfortably take you back to Chania after a full day of memories.
