Balos Beach is one of the best in the world 🇬🇷
#beachcheck
Visiting Balos Beach in Crete was an unforgettable experience! 🏖️💙 Located on the northwestern tip of the island, this place is a true paradise. The drive to the beach is a bit of an adventure itself, with a dirt road and a bit of a hike down to the beach, but trust me, it's worth every effort! 🚶♂️ When you finally see the stunning turquoise waters and the white sand, you'll know you've arrived at one of the most beautiful spots in Greece. The water is shallow and crystal clear, perfect for a refreshing swim. 🌊
There’s no entrance fee to get to Balos, but if you prefer a more comfortable journey, you can take a boat tour from Kissamos, which costs around €30. The boat ride offers breathtaking views of the coastline and stops at the island of Gramvousa, where you can explore a Venetian fortress. 🏰 I spent my time at Balos sunbathing and snorkeling; the underwater life is amazing! 🐠 If you’re into photography, make sure to bring your camera because every angle is picture-perfect.
Nearby, you can explore Falassarna Beach, another stunning spot, or visit the town of Chania, about an hour’s drive away, to enjoy some traditional Cretan cuisine. 🍲 If you're planning a trip to Crete, don't miss out on Balos Beach. It’s the perfect spot to relax, soak up the sun, and marvel at nature’s beauty. 🌺 #trip #BalosBeach #CreteParadise #GreekIslands #BeachLife #TravelGreece
