The landscape here combines Greek nature with scenery reminiscent of tropical islands, creating an extraordinary setting for the country. The Gramvousa Cape and the small Tigani peninsula frame the turquoise waters, which blend seamlessly with the sky, creating idyllic images that captivate from the first glance!
To reach Balos, follow the Chania–Kasteli national road until you reach the local road leading to the beach after 46 km. Continue along a dirt road for 8 km, then descend a path that takes approximately 20 minutes to reach the sea.
The slope is quite steep, requiring caution. Alternatively, you can visit Balos via daily cruises departing from Kissamos port.
