Highlights
  • Gramvousa Beach - Gramvousa is renowned for its historic Venetian fortress, which still stands 137 meters above the beach. The fort was also used by pirates; one legend claims a great treasure is buried on the island. Additionally, an old shipwreck abandoned many years ago near the beach has become a distinctive part of the landscape.

  • Balos Lagoon - Balos is known for its turquoise waters, wild natural beauty, and stunning exotic scenery. The lagoon features white sand and vibrant white, blue, and turquoise waters. The sea is very shallow and warm, making it perfect for young children. In many areas, the sand has a lovely pink hue due to millions of crushed shells. Beyond the rocks at the lagoon’s edges, the water is deeper and colder.

Great day out to some fab beaches - beautiful! - Can't fault the experience and our tour guide, George, was a legend...so helpful and friendly. It's a long day out but worth the effort. Take cash for ferry ticket and sun beds. There's very little shade so take appropriate clothing. Decent shoes required if you want to visit the fort. It's quite rocky in places so beach shoes also worth having. Highly recommended
