About the experience

Sail away from the ordinary and discover the wild, untouched magic of Crete’s northwest coast. This 4-hour boat tour brings you face to face with dramatic shipwrecks, centuries-old fortresses, and the mesmerizing waters of one of Europe’s most photographed lagoons—all without the crowds or the rush.

Your journey begins at the port of Limeniskos, where you board a private boat, captained by an experienced local guide who knows these waters intimately. First, cruise along the rugged coast toward Gramvousa Island, where you’ll have time to climb to the iconic Venetian fortress, perched dramatically above the bay. Below, the Gramvousa shipwreck lies hauntingly near the shore, a photographer’s dream and a relic of maritime history.

The tour continues to the legendary Balos Lagoon, famous for its bright turquoise waters and white sandbars. Whether you prefer swimming, snorkeling, or simply soaking in the views, Balos offers the perfect escape into tranquility and nature.

What makes this experience truly special is its tailor-made, private format—crafted just for you.

    We had a wonderful day on the water and the crew was super nice and competent. Despite some swell we felt safe at all times and we had a wonderful time on the boat and on the beach. We can only recommend it and would certainly book again. Stephen
