Overview

Your journey begins at Kissamos Port on a semi-private cruise aboard a stylish catamaran. Enjoy espresso, tea, water, soft drinks and a fresh breakfast bowl.
At Balos Lagoon, relax on sunbeds, sip detox water and admire the pink-white sands and turquoise waters. Savor Cretan bites, swim, paddle or soak up the sun.
Next, explore Gramvousa Island, an uninhabited gem with wild landscapes and crystal waters.
A Cretan lunch with local organic ingredients awaits, with Greek beer or white wine from the open bar. Seafood options available.
We operate a Lagoon 450 and a Bali Catspace; the specific boat is not guaranteed.
IMPORTANT: The time in your booking is the cruise departure time from the port, NOT your pickup time. The day before the cruise you will receive a message with your pickup point and pickup time based on your location. Please watch for it so you don't miss it.

Q: Will I get seasick on Balos and Gramvousa Luxury Catamaran Sailing Cruise from Kissamos?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
