Balos is a breathtaking lagoon beach on the remote northwestern tip of Crete, where the Gramvousa Peninsula meets the sea in a spectacular sweep of shallow turquoise and pink-tinged waters. The beach is sheltered by wild, rocky headlands and is accessible by boat from Kissamos or via a rugged hiking trail, rewarding visitors with one of the most iconic seascapes in the Mediterranean. Its shallow, warm lagoon waters and the small islet of Gramvousa visible in the distance make it an unforgettable destination in Lasithi.
