About this tour

Wondering what the most photographed, dreamy Balos Lagoon looks like in real life? This catamaran cruise takes you to one of Crete’s most breathtaking destinations- a must-see spot that truly lives up to its reputation. 

Step aboard a luxurious, brand-new catamaran with a friendly, fun, and professional crew ready to exceed your expectations.

Departing from Kissamos Port (and yes, transfers are available!), your day begins with a warm welcome and freshly brewed coffee. First stop: Balos Bay– a paradise of turquoise waters, wild natural beauty, and an exotic landscape waiting to be explored. While you soak it all in, enjoy a buffer of delicious finger food served onboard.

Next, set sail to Gramvousa Island, just two miles northwest of Balos. Famous for its historic Venetian fortress, this stop is perfect for swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, or even trying your luck at fishing straight from the boat. The day is yours to enjoy!

And just when you think it can’t get any better- a mouthwatering buffet awaits you onboard. Every dish is freshly prepared by hand: traditional shrimp pasta with feta, mussels in turmeric and ouzo sauce, chicken breast with oranges, kid-friendly options, and homemade sweets. With your glass constantly topped up, you’ll be toasting an unforgettable experience. 

We’ll warn you now- you’ll step off the boat already wanting to do this all over again the next day!
