Itinerary
Starting the trip our ride to Balos will last 30min. We will stop at the turquoise waters spending 2 hours. The wild nature beauty and beautiful exotic scenery will enchant you. The sea is vey shallow and warm, ideal for young children. In many places the sand has a lovely pinkish color because of millions of crushed shells. Come back on board for a cold drink, our staff always willing to assist you. Gramvousa island stands just across. Please make sure you are going back on board on time.
Our next stop is going to be just across "the island of Gramvousa" for one more hour. Gramvousa is famous for its historical Venetian fortress, which still stands at a height of 137m, over the beach. The fort had also been used by pirates, one legend tells that there is a great treasure buried in the island.The view from there is stunning. A good idea in case you are going to admire that 360 panoramic view is to bring a pair of sneakers with you, because there is only a trail that will guide you at the top. Also the old wreck that was abandoned many years ago near the beach, has become an characteristic part of the landscape. We do offer on board free drinks. Welcome on board and enjoy!

We paid 20 euros more with TripAdvisor and did not get the planned service.
Nice crew, cold drinks, enough time for stops
Was canceled at short notice without explanation.
Fabulous trip to two spots on board a lovely speedboat for a small group. Lovely friendly staff. Free soft drinks and beer on board. Advisable to take water shoes as you need to wade into shore at Balos from the boat and in places it’s quite rocky. Three hours is just enough time
A lot of fun, I like how we did the hike before our stop with swimming. Balos was beautiful, would definitely go again.
Great trip! The destinations were beautiful - water and wind was cool this time of year. Water was rough getting there and back but the captain did a great job navigating the waves. The captain recognized that one of the people in our group was uncomfortable with the rough water and moved them to the back of the boat where the ride was smoother. Beer, soda and water were provided and on ice in the boat.
We had a great time going to each location and exploring everything they each had to offer. Our captain was phenomenal and kind. This was my second time booking this trip so I highly recommend this excursion!
This tour was great! Our Captain Gregory was so professional, helpful and friendly. It was a wild & fun ride out to Gramvousa where we hung out for an hour before the big ferry showed up. Then we went to Balos Lagoon and hopped off the boat and waded in the water to the beach! Great time was had! And three hours was plenty of time to enjoy it and not be in the sun all day long. Thank you Captain Gregory!!
This was a great way to explore Gramvousa and Balos! The tour group is much smaller than most of the other tour ships and was the perfect amount of time in each place. The speedboat was also a fun way to get around. They had drinks for us on board.
Ammmmmmazing. Captain of the boat was very friendly, relaxed and knowledgeable. Gramvousa was spectacular. Balos, also unbelievable. Did get busy here not long after we arrived, but still amazing to visit. I would suggest the Morning trip if you can. Be mindful, you have to wade through the sea from the boat to get to the shore in Balos. The sea came up to our neck, although im only 5"3, so that wasnt hard. Probably not ideal if you have mobility problems or very small children - or you can't swim!
