What you can expect

Set sail for a day of adventure and relaxation as we explore two of Crete’s most spectacular destinations. This excursion takes place every Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday, offering an unforgettable experience of crystal-clear waters, untouched nature, and rich history.

Excursion Details
• The tour starts around 07:00 in the morning from the first pixk up point (depending on your hotel pick-up location).
• We arrive at Kissamos Port, where we board the boat operated by Cretan Daily Cruises for a magical journey across the turquoise waters.
• We return to Rethymno at approximately 20:30.

Gramvousa – The Pirate Island
Our first stop is Gramvousa, an island steeped in history and legend. Here, you will have about 2 hours of free time to explore the impressive Venetian fortress, perched high above the sea, offering breathtaking panoramic views. Alternatively, you can take a refreshing swim in the island’s stunning waters or simply relax on its golden sandy beach.

Balos Lagoon – A Tropical Paradise
Next, we sail to the famous Balos Lagoon, one of the most photographed spots in Crete. With its shallow, turquoise waters, soft white-pink sand, and wild natural beauty, Balos feels like an untouched paradise. You will have around 2.5 hours to swim in its crystal-clear waters, bask in the sun, or walk along the stunning landscape where the sea meets the sky.

This journey is perfect for nature lovers, photography enthusiasts, and anyone seeking an escape to some of the most spectacular beaches in Greece!
