- Balos Lagoon - The journey to Balos will take approximately 30 minutes. Upon arrival, enjoy an hour at the stunning turquoise waters. The breathtaking natural beauty and exotic scenery are sure to captivate you. The sea is shallow and warm, making it perfect for young children. In many areas, the sand has a charming pink hue due to countless crushed shells. Return to the boat for a refreshing drink, with our friendly staff ready to assist you. Gramvousa Island is located just across the way. Please ensure you return to the boat on time.
- Gramvousa Beach - Our next destination is the nearby “Island of Gramvousa,” where we will spend another hour. Gramvousa is renowned for its historic Venetian fortress, which still stands 137 meters above the beach. The fort was once used by pirates, and legend has it that a great treasure is buried on the island. The view from the top is breathtaking. If you plan to enjoy the 360-degree panoramic view, consider bringing sneakers, as there is only a trail leading to the summit. Additionally, an old shipwreck, abandoned years ago near the beach, has become a distinctive part of the landscape. Complimentary drinks are available on board. Welcome aboard and enjoy your trip!

Great trip! Beautiful water! - 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.

Perfect 3 hour boat tour to Gramvousa Island and Balos Lagoon! - 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!!

Great small group tour! - 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.

Amazing trip - 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!

Great outing in Speed boat bay of balos - We did it at the last minute and were afraid of going too far from the other side of the point. So we went on an adventure in this micro port.After meeting a skipper on the port we contacted the boss by whatsapp. Almost immediate response, the speed boat leaves in 1 hour and there is room for us. 30 pints ride by speed boat with qq photo break and we were already in the bay of balls at the foot of the fort. Music on board, super friendly captain, drink available and in small group (10 people on board)
1 hour break then direction to qq hundreds of meters on other beach of the bay, 1 hour break also. A return with the sun always dropping in music and guaranteed cold drink. Duration of the trip 3h30 and no lengths felt. Besides, it's cheap.
Nb: we met the huge boat that came from the other side of the point, 1000 people on board who all land on a small corner of sand, more expensive. A horror! Fortunately we avoided them.

Have to swim in water to get to balos; sketchy port - Would recommend balos and gramvousa, but not with this tour. Sketchy port, ran late, driver drove crazy (killed boat engine at one point) and parked so far from balos we had to completely swim in freezing water.
