About the experience

Get ready for a full day of adventure as you visit some of the most breathtaking coastal locations in Western Crete. This 6 to 7-hour cruise is designed for travelers who want a bit of everything — stunning beaches, historical sites, and hidden natural gems.

Your journey starts with a one-hour sail to Balos Lagoon, where bright turquoise waters and white sand create a picture-perfect setting. Next, you'll reach Gramvousa Island, known for its iconic shipwreck and the Venetian fortress offering panoramic views over the sea.

The day continues with a stop at Menies Beach — quiet, remote, and surrounded by raw nature. The last destination is Thodorou Island, where snorkeling over a sunken WWII aircraft becomes a truly unique experience.

This cruise is the perfect balance of relaxation, exploration, and unforgettable scenery — a must for anyone looking to see the best of the Chania region in one go.
