Discover one of Europe's best beaches
Enjoy swimming at Balos Bay
Admire stunning views from the ruins of the Gramvousa castle

What to expect

With this tour you will enjoy great scenery, beach time and pinch of medieval history.

At first you'll sail past steep cliffs and caves before docking at Imeri Gramvousa isle. Once a pirate hideout, this massive chunk of rock is crowned by a half-ruined Venetian fort. There, you can stay sunbathing on deck, take a swim or trek up to the castle to take in the magnificent views. Next, your boat will make its way back to Tigani on the peninsula. Lapped by the fluorescent turquoise waters of the Balos lagoon, it's a beach that looks like something from the Caribbean.
