Overview

We leave from Kolymbari port at 10:00 and go directly to Gramvousa island where you can enjoy the turquoise waters and if you wish, walk up to the castle for a beautiful panoramic view. We then move onto Balos lagoon where you have free time for swimming and relaxing. Our aim is to arrive at each place before the larger ferry boats from Kissamos, giving you the opportunity to enjoy them as less crowded as possible. We then move onto Menies beach and Choironissia for another swim and we arrive back at the port of Kolymbari around 18:00

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private Boat Trip From Kolymbari To Balos Gramvousa?

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
