Balos and Gramvousa
A private day in western Crete to a turquoise lagoon and an island fortress
About
A private trip from Chania to Crete's wild north-west. The Balos lagoon — shallow turquoise water where three seas meet; nearby, Gramvousa island with its Venetian fortress and 'pirate' bay.
A personal guide and transport, at your pace: swimming, the climb to the fortress, photos from above. One of the most photogenic corners of the Mediterranean.
