Details
By choosing our boat trip from Falasarna to the Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa, you will visit one of the most beautiful beaches on the island of Crete. Let yourself be enchanted by these landscapes of unspoilt nature and spend a few hours relaxing.
We will depart from Falasarna Port, where our staff will be waiting for you on board the boat to give you a few hours of carefreeness and fun. We will then begin our trip in these turquoise and transparent waters, surrounded by a long white sandy beach. After about 30 minutes of navigation, we will arrive at the Balos Lagoon, a nature reserve described by many as a paradise on earth. It is a lagoon formed by a tongue of sand separating it from the bay of the same name. Here we will make a stop of about 1 hour, where you can take a refreshing swim and admire the surrounding landscape.
Resuming navigation, the next destination will be Gramvousa, an archipelago consisting of two small uninhabited islets with a landscape that is very rocky and wild. Here there is a second swimming stop of about 1 hour, where you can once again dive into these wonderful waters. After the stop, it will then be time to return to our starting point.Highlights

*Until the new measures for visiting Balos are implemented by the Environmental Services, the ship will approach Balos and anchor 100 meters off the coast. Swimming and snorkeling are prohibited inside the lagoon but can be done outside.
The excursion is definitely worth a look and the boat is really great, fast and music on board! The team is very friendly! I recommend it!

We booked tickets online. That went smoothly. Upon arrival, we received instructions and took a cool, fast boat to the two islands. Our captain played some great fast music and we sped along.
There were plenty of drinks on board. The captain gave us plenty of freedom and we were able to relax on the beach and swim.
Definitely recommended.
