About this tour

Chase the sunset across Crete’s most iconic coastline on a magical shared cruise to to the most jaw-dropping beach: Balos Lagoon, plus a stop at the wild and legendary Gramvousa Island .

🚤 Hop aboard a sleek 45ft sailing yacht, where a small group of just 8 lucky guests will enjoy golden hour like never before—no crowds, just sea, sky, and pure Mediterranean bliss.

The adventure begins from Kissamos Port, just as the light starts to soften. Sail west across calm waters with views of Gramvousa Cape and let the fresh breeze do its thing. First stop: the famous Balos Lagoon — think pink-tinged sand, glowing turquoise water, and total serenity. Swim, snorkel, or just float under the sky while soaking it all in.

🏝️ Then it’s off to Gramvousa, where rugged beauty meets history. Climb up to the Venetian fortress for a view that’ll blow up your camera roll—or stay beachside with a cold drink and good vibes.

🍇 Onboard? Expect homemade snacks, fresh fruit, unlimited wine, beer, and soft drinks, all served with local flavor and warm Cretan hospitality. Snorkeling gear is available too—just ask the crew.

🌞 As the sun dips behind the mountains and the sky turns gold, glide back towards shore in full chill mode. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a memory in the making.
