7Balos Lagoon

Balos Lagoon, located on the northwestern coast of Crete, is a paradise of turquoise waters, white sand, and rugged natural beauty. Accessible by boat or a scenic hike, Balos is one of the most photographed locations in Crete.

The contrast between the shallow, warm waters and the deeper blue sea creates a breathtaking visual spectacle. This is an ideal spot for swimming, sunbathing, and taking in the awe-inspiring surroundings.
