Overview

Explore the exotic Balos Lagoon and the mesmerizing Gramvousa Island on board the most prestigious Rib boat in Crete. Our journey begins from Kissamos Port. After starting the engines you will experience the thrill of speed cruising trough the Cretan Sea. After about 30 minutes of cruising you will arrive to your first destination, Gramvousa island. The boat will anchor to the closest point possible for you to disembark but keep in mind that you might have to swim/walk a few meters inside the water to reach the land. You will have about 2 hours of free time in the island. After that you will depart for the next exciting destination, Balos Lagoon. The boat will once again anchor as close to the beach as possible and you will be able to swim/walk to the shore or simply enjoy the crystal waters diving from our boat. You will have about 2 hours before departure. Throughout the whole cruise you can enjoy unlimited refreshments from our open ice cooler except during cruising in high speeds.

What To Expect

Gramvousa Beach

You can find Gramvousa’s beach beneath the Venetian fort at Imeri Gramvousa. It’s in the bay area of the southern end of the island. Its white sand and clear waters are welcoming to all the visitors of the island. The water is calm, and relaxing under the tamarisk trees offers a peaceful escape from daily life. The fact that it’s only reachable by boat adds to its exclusivity.

Balos Lagoon

Once graced by Princess Diana and Prince Charles, Balos Lagoon is known for its stunning exotic scenery, wild natural beauty, and breathtaking turquoise waters. The lagoon has turquoise, vivid blue, and exotic white waters. The sand in some places has a dazzling pinkish color because of the millions of crushed shells. As you go further into the sea, beyond the rocks that form the natural boundaries, the water is colder and deeper, ideal for snorkeling. The Natura 2000 program protects Balos Lagoon because of the rare flora and fauna species. Around 400 plant species have been registered in the area. Twenty-five of these species are indigenous to Crete, with three of them only found in Balos. The lagoon accommodates a large number of birds that migrate, feed, and breed here. You will find Eleonora falcons, cormorants, and shags nesting in surrounding caves. The area also acts as a shelter for the protected loggerhead or Caretta-Caretta sea turtle and monk seal.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on From Kissamos Balos And Gramvousa Speedboat Cruise with Drinks?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
