Description
Two of Crete's most beautiful spots in one relaxed day at sea: the pink-sand Balos Lagoon and the wild, uninhabited Gramvousa Island. You sail on a modern catamaran with sunbeds and shaded lounges, in a small group of up to 25, while our crew takes care of everything — you just swim, eat and unwind.
Departure & pickup
The catamaran leaves Kissamos Port at 08:30. Please note this is the boat's departure time, not your pickup time. If your option includes a transfer, your pickup is earlier and we confirm it with you the day before. Coming on your own? Just arrive at Kissamos Port 20 minutes before departure — port rules mean we can't wait for latecomers.
Your day onboard
You're welcomed aboard at Kissamos Port with drinks and a fresh breakfast bowl, then we set sail for Balos Lagoon. Arriving early, you swim and snorkel in calm, crystal-clear water before the crowds, with a tender boat to take you close to shore and SUPs and gear ready to use. From there we continue to Gramvousa Island, where you can swim by the shore or hike up to the Venetian fortress for the view (castle ticket not included). Lunch is served onboard with the open bar, and after the meal there's still time for one more swim before we sail back to Kissamos Port.
Food onboard
Our menu is created by a renowned Greek chef, so you taste several different Greek flavours in one sitting rather than a single plate. Food quality is one of our highest priorities — we run our own catering, use only Grade A products, and control freshness, storage and food safety ourselves.
You'll enjoy:
Welcome
Homemade Greek pitas, baked croissants, healthy bars
Cretan Appetizers
Local cheeses, olives, traditional rusks
Salads
Quinoa salad, politiki salad, stuffed cherry tomatoes
Main Courses
Calamarata with beef cheek & Graviera béchamel
Vegetable ratatouille
BBQ chicken with basmati rice
Desserts
Lemon tart, seasonal fruit platter
We deliberately serve both a meat and a seafood dish so you experience more of Greek cuisine in one meal. A vegetarian option is available on request, and the menu may vary slightly by season.
Open bar — included: unlimited water, soft drinks, local beer, white wine, coffee, tea and detox water.
The itinerary may change due to weather — your comfort and safety always come first.
Please kindly note that on this route we operate two yachts — Lagoon 45 and Bali 4.5. We do not guarantee which specific boat your booking will be assigned to, as allocation depends on operational planning and availability on the day.
