About this trip

Our tour to Balos starts as soon as you board our boat from the  old Venetian harbour of Chania ,offering you the chance to see  it from a totally different angle few have the chance to admire.

Our first stop is Gramvousa island. We usually start early in the morning in order to be there before the packed, massive ships and avoid the crowds. You can either go up to the beautiful fort on the top of the island and admire the amazing view or enjoy the crystal clear waters of Gramvousa. An ideal spot for snorkeling, as there is  an old ship wreck, very close to the surface of the sea.

Whenever you are ready we continue our trip to the stunning Balos lagoon. you can stay there for as long as you wish to enjoy the place, the boat and to take pictures as it will be a day to remember! There is no better way to end your cruise than by visiting an isolated beach and have lunch on board. For that purpose we usually go to Menies or Chironisia beach.

The cruise is private, it lasts 7 hours and prices include skipper and host services , beverages ( soft drinks, beers & water ) ,full lunch with wine, snorkeling equipment, towels , fuel and taxes.
