Depart Rethymno at approximately 07:45 and travel by bus along the new national road towards the westernmost tip of Crete. Pass the bay of Souda and the former Cretan capital of Chania before your arrival in Kissamos.
Upon arrival, climb aboard a boat and cross to Balos Bay at the northernmost tip of the peninsula. Relax on the 1-hour boat trip, and get 2.5 hours at Balos Bay to enjoy the soft white sands and unique blue and green waters of the lagoon.
Next, take a 20-minute boat ride to Gramvousa Island for plenty of time to enjoy an unforgettable swim in the crystal clear waters. If you are feeling energetic, take an optional 137-meter climb up to the 16th-century Venetian Fortress for an incomparable view of the surrounding surroundings.
Enjoy approximately 1.5 hours at peace on Gramvousa Island, and then take a 1-hour boat ride back to Kissamos. Upon arrival, continue to Rethymno by bus at the end of the laid-back tour.
**we would like to inform you that the cruise company is changing the schedule of the cruise to Balos & Gramvousa.
According to their recent announcement, for the next period there will be no boat landing at Balos starting from 22 May until 10 June. The ship will anchor 100m. from the coast of Balos and will remain there for about 1.5 hours for swimming. On the other hand, the stay in Gramvousa is extended by 1 hour, so the total time they will stay there is about 2.5-3 hours.
Thank you for your understanding.
