  • Kastelli Kissamos Old Port, Kissamos, Greece
    Kissamos is a town on the west of Chania with a port and a fishing harbor. From Kissamos port we will be sailing towards Gramvousa and Balos. While on the boat trip, observe the geological phenomenon of the land elevation of Crete, where the island rises out of the sea in the west side of the island and at the same time sinking in the east.
    90 minutes
  • Gramvousa, Gramvousa, Greece
    Gramvousa is an island located 20 km northwest of Kissamos and opposite the Cape of Gramvousa. On the island, at a height of 137m over the sea level, still stands a Venetian fortress built between 1579 and 1584, during the Venetian occupation of the island of Crete. The fortress was also used by pirates and a legend claims that there is a great treasure buried on the island. An old shipwreck near the beach has marked its initials as part of the landscape. The water is turquoise color and the seabed is ideal for snorkeling.
    150 minutes
  • Balos Lagoon, Kissamos, Greece
    Between Gramvousa and the coast of Crete, the lagoon of Balos is formed. It has white sand and vivid blue and turquoise water. The sea is very shallow and warm. Due to millions of crushed shells, in many places, the sand has a lovely pinkish color. The lagoon and the wider area around it are both protected under Natura 2000 program, as rare species of flora and fauna are found there. Eleonora falcons, shags and cormorants nest in the caves of the area. Moreover, the area is a shelter for the protected monk seal and the sea turtle Caretta Caretta.

Gramvoussa est une île très sympa propice à la baignade. Balos est bien aïs gâchée par les sun beds à perte de vue. Trop de touristes.

The views were amazing. The tour guide was friendly and has given all the necessary information. It was a little scary because of the waves, we had a 20 minutes storm with high waves. All the passangers were scared and were having a hard time facing the storm. Overall, it was a once in a lifetime experience! Thank you!

Esperienza magnifica, organizzazione perfetta. Certo le mete del tour sono molto turistiche ma l’essenza dei posti è speciale ed è possibile scorgerne la bellezza anche con centinaia di persone insieme a te. In particolare la guida era molto preparata, simpatica e gentile e anche l’autista molto bravo. Il viaggio è durato 3 ore ma è passato con leggerezza. Consiglio
