About this tour
Looking for a different kind of evening? Something a little magical, a little off the beaten path? Hop aboard a beautiful, spacious sailing yacht and head out towards one of Crete’s most stunning spots: Balos Lagoon, just in time for sunset.
🌅 The journey starts from Kissamos Port, where the friendly crew welcomes everyone with a smile and a cold drink. After a quick safety briefing and answers to any questions, it’s time to relax. Lounge on comfy sunbeds or chill in the shaded outdoor area while sailing along the dramatic coastline of Gramvousa Cape.
The ride is smooth, the views are endless, and the sea breeze sets the perfect tone for what’s to come.
🏝️ After about 1.5 hours of sailing, the yacht anchors right in the heart of Balos Lagoon. There’s no need to step ashore, just dive straight into the crystal-clear waters from the boat. Swim, float, or grab some snorkeling or paddleboarding gear and explore at your own pace (just ask the captain for anything you need).
🍷 Back on board, enjoy gourmet Cretan snacks made with local ingredients, plus unlimited drinks, wine, beer, iced tea, and soft drinks. It’s the kind of laid-back dining that tastes even better surrounded by sea and sky.
As the sun begins to dip below the horizon, the yacht sets sail again, heading back to port. The return journey is slow and scenic, bathed in golden light. This is the kind of sunset that leaves a mark, quiet, peaceful, and unforgettable.
The total time at Balos is about an hour, but the experience lasts much longer in memory.
This trip is perfect for couples, small groups, or anyone who just wants to skip the crowds and do something a little more special. There’s plenty of space, plenty of comfort, and a whole lot of charm.
🌊 Sail into a Cretan sunset. Swim in one of the world’s most beautiful lagoons. Sip something cold and let the moment sink in.
Book your spot now, this is the sea at its best.
