What To Expect

Embark on a private boat trip with our experienced skippers. Your exclusive adventure begins at the stunning Balos Lagoon. We need 30 minutes to get there. Dive into its crystal-clear waters, snorkel, or relax on the boat and enjoy the magic scenery. You will have the opportunity to go to the beach, since we will come enough close to the shore and drop you off, without needing to swim a lot. Enjoy the lagoon at your own leisure for around two hours. Then, we will travel for 10 minutes to reach picturesque Gramvousa Island. There, we will stay one hour and you will have the chance to hike, explore the fortress, and take some breathtaking panoramic views. While making unforgettable memories, taste some delicious Cretan flavors, that we prepared for you and drink refreshing drinks. Next, we need 15 minutes to visit Agios Sozon, a place where the serene atmosphere captivates us and the wild nature gives peace to the soul. The pristine, crystalline waters make it an ideal location for swimming. We will spend approximately 50 minutes there, reveling in its natural beauty and tranquility. Our wonderful cruise will come to an end with a 15-minute trip back to the place where we started.
