About this trip

Set sail from Kissamos Port, Chania aboard the Motorboat Mostro 225hp and spend a full day exploring two of western Crete's most stunning destinations.

Departing at 9:00 AM, your first stop is the magical island of Gramvousa, where crystal-clear waters invite you for a refreshing swim and a fascinating exploration of the historic Venetian fortress perched above the sea.

Next, anchor at the world-famous Balos Lagoon, a true natural wonder with shallow turquoise waters and white sandy beaches that feel like something out of a dream. Take a dip, stroll along the shore, and soak in the breathtaking panoramic views.

Along the way, cruise past beautiful secluded beaches, offering serene views of the unspoiled Cretan coastline as you sail back to Kissamos, arriving at 5:00 PM.

Drinking water, beer, snacks, and snorkeling equipment are all included, along with fuel, everything you need for an unforgettable day on the water.
