From which ports can I book a boat trip to Balos?

You can start your skippered boat trip from the Old port of Chania or the post of Kastelli in Kissamos (40-minutes away from Chania by car). Chania is 1.5h distance by boat from Balos, while Kissamos is barely 30 minutes away by boat to reach the amazing beach of Balos. It’s your choice. Of course if you are looking for an affordable motorboat rental with a skipper, Kissamos is the place you go to. Otherwise, if you would like to visit even more beaches before reaching Balos, then Chania Old Port is the perfect spot to start your boat trip with us. 

Why choose a boat trip to Balos?

When booking a private boat trip with a skipper you get the comfort of your own privacy. You would not have to struggle when hiking that steep cliff before reaching Balos Lagoon. On a chartered boat cruise you can enjoy the crystal clear waters. You can see several other beaches and we will even make a stop in Gramvousa island. Gramvousa is opposite to Balos and it is said that it has crystal clear waters, even better than Balos beach.

Laid back, speed when we wanted it. Yiannis was awesome. We had a cake as a surprise for my birthday. We had a nervous passenger but by the end of the trip she was whooping in delight at every bounce. Highlights snorkelling on the wreck, diving off the boat in Balos lagoon, chilling with a beer in the sun. Couldn’t fault it.

The crew is very friendly and we visited the prettiest beaches on our trip. We booked the 11 meter rib boat and were 5 people including the skipper. The boat has everything you want including a small fridge if you want to bring some drinks and enough space to lie down and tan during the trip. We also brought our speargun with us and the skipper stopped on some good spots where we could go for a couple dives. Definitely a must do when you go to Chania and I’m really looking forward to the next time!

A fantastic day out at Balos thanks to Manolis and the team at SEAze the Day. We were traveling with small children including a 3 month old and every effort was made to make our transfers and experience as seamless as possible. Our heartfelt thanks for their dedicated service and providing a memorable day at one of the worlds most beautiful beaches. Thanks guys!
