Balos lagoon

Balos in Chania is one of the most famous and mesmerizing beaches in Greece. It’s a lagoon located 53 km from Chania Town, on the west side of the Gramvoussa cape. Its white sand and turquoise waters glistening under the sun create a scenery that truly resembles a painting. The sea is not very deep, and the waters are warm, making it suitable for children and the elderly. The beach is semi-organized, as it provides umbrellas, chaises, and a small canteen, but no facilities like changing rooms and showers.
