Overview
Sail with us on board the grandest and most luxurious Catamaran in Crete (Lagoon 560) and discover one of the most exotic places in the world. Our journey begins at the Port of Kissamos where our Crew will warmly welcome you on board. After arriving to Gramvousa island you will have around 2 hours of free time to explore or simply enjoy the refreshing water diving from our yacht. Disembarkation will be possible with our tender boat. As you return on board you will be welcomed by our luxurious menu freshly prepared by our staff. Serve your plate with any delicacies you like from our buffet and refresh yourselves with our unlimited drinks. About 30 minutes later you will cruise towards Balos lagoon. You will have again around 2 hours in Balos before we start our sailing back to the port. During our 2 stops you will be able to try our snorkeling and stand-up paddle boarding equipment according to the instructions of the captain so feel free to request it from him.

What you will do
- 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.
