This trip departs from Chania, a picturesque coastal city on the northwest of Crete in Greece. It is known for its interesting Venetian architecture and surrounding natural landscapes. On this powerboat tour from Chania, you'll travel to Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa Island!

You'll start the half-day excursion by boarding the Wellcraft Scarab Excel 31" (9.5 m) 850HP Powerboat at Chania Old Harbour. The experienced skipper will welcome you and provide an overview of the itinerary. Your private group of up to 5 participants will have the boat to yourselves, ensuring a personalised experience. Then, the boat tour in Crete begins! The skipper will set sail from Chania and head towards the secluded bays. The first stop is Balos Lagoon, famous for its shallow turquoise waters, white-pink sand, and dramatic scenery.

You'll stop for a refreshing swim in the vibrant blue waters, admiring the surrounding exotic tropical beauty and wild Mediterranean landscapes. Afterwards, the boat trip to Gramvousa Island continues, a historic island located just off the coast of Balos. The island is home to a Venetian fortress built in 1579, perched on a steep hilltop. You can explore the dramatic castle, swim in the pristine waters, and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere.

The final stop on your boat trip in Crete is Menies Beach, a remote and unspoiled spot northwest of Chania. It is a quiet, secluded beach with crystal-clear waters, a pebbly shore, and rugged landscapes. You'll have one last swim in the sea and relax in the Greek sun. On the way back to Chania, the skipper will take a scenic route with amazing views of the island's rocky mountains. Throughout the day, the tour can be tailored and customised to suit your preferences. The trip will end back at Chania Old Harbour.

Enjoy an unforgettable private powerboat tour to Balos Lagoon, Gramvousa Island, and Menies Beach from Chania, making memories with your loved ones in Crete!
