• Balos Lagoon - Situated at the northwestern edge of Crete, close to Kissamos in Chania, Balos Lagoon is renowned as one of Greece’s most stunning and photographed natural wonders.

This enchanting lagoon is celebrated for its shallow, crystal-clear turquoise waters and fine white sand, which in some areas appears pink due to crushed seashells. The tranquil and warm waters make it a perfect spot for families and those looking for relaxation and safe swimming.

Across from the lagoon lies the rugged and dramatic Gramvousa peninsula. Atop the hill stands the historic Gramvousa Fortress, constructed by the Venetians in the 16th century, providing breathtaking panoramic views of the Cretan Sea.

Balos is accessible by car (followed by a short hike with spectacular views) or by boat from the port of Kissamos. Its distinctive natural beauty, exotic colors, and pristine scenery offer an unforgettable experience for every visitor.

• Gramvousa Beach - Imeri Gramvousa Island is a small, uninhabited island off the northwestern coast of Crete, near Kissamos. It is renowned for its untamed natural beauty, turquoise waters, and rich history.

The island is most famous for the impressive Gramvousa Fortress, built by the Venetians in 1579. Positioned high on a steep hill, the fortress provides breathtaking panoramic views of the Cretan Sea and the surrounding coastline. In the 19th century, Gramvousa served as a haven for Cretan rebels and later became associated with pirate activity, earning it the nickname “Pirate Island.”

Today, visitors can hike to the fortress to explore its ruins or unwind on the island’s beautiful beach, where crystal-clear waters meet golden sand and a historic shipwreck lies near the shore. Often paired with a visit to Balos Lagoon, Gramvousa Island offers a unique combination of history, adventure, and stunning natural scenery.
