Tour Description

The nearby islet of Gramvousa adds to the allure, with its Venetian fortress perched on top of a hill, providing panoramic views of the lagoon and the surrounding coastline.
Balos Lagoon is part of the Natura 2000 network, ensuring the conservation of its unique flora and fauna. Visitors can revel in the pristine beauty of the beach while enjoying the tranquility of the remote and untouched surroundings.
