About


Balos Lagoon is located on the northwestern tip of Crete, about 56 km west of Chania and accessible by boat or a rugged mountain road. Its striking palette of pastel-blue waters, powdery white sand, and the islet of Tigani creates one of Greece’s most photographed seascapes. The shallow, warm lagoon is perfect for wading and snorkeling, while the surrounding rocky hills offer panoramic viewpoints reached via a short hike. Facilities are minimal—bring water and snacks—ensuring an unspoiled, back-to-nature experience.
