Short Description
  • At this point, we will sail to the islet of Agria Gramvousa and Cape Vouxa, where we will anchor for 2.5 hours. Known as the island of pirates, Gramvousa is an unpopulated island with rocky cliffs, azure waters and a beautiful natural landscape. Once there, you can go hiking to the highest point of the island and see the famous castle of Gramvousa built by Venetians in 1579. You can also opt for a relaxing swim next to Agoio Apostoloi Chapel and even visit an abandoned shipwreck that lies just next to the coastline. 
  • Our second stop will be at Balos Lagoon for 1.5 hours. This exotic beach-lagoon is listed as one of the best beaches in the world and included in the European initiative Natura 2000. Here we will anchor 100 meters from the coast, and you can go swimming or snorkeling from the boat in the turquoise blue waters. At the end of the trip, we will head back to the port of Kissamos.
  • Explore the stunning Bay of Kissamos with this boat trip to Balos and Gramvousa that will take you to the best spots of Crete. We depart from the port of Kissamos and sail for one hour, passing through cliffs and secluded beaches that meet the Mediterranean Sea. You will be amazed by the clear turquoise waters and breathtaking scenery that surrounds Crete. We will also pass a large cave thought to be an ancient shipyard.
