Balos is yet another exotic corner of Crete, which nature has generously touched and highlighted in a favorite &#8220;frame&#8221; of photos, postcards and tourist guides. The sea is shallow and warm, the sand is colored pink by crushed shells, and in the background, after the rocks, the waters are deeper and cooler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"530\" src=\"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-4.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6887\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-4.webp 900w, https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-4-300x177.webp 300w, https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-4-768x452.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To reach Balos you have three ways, the first and easiest is the boat from Kissamos, which will allow you to admire the wild coasts of the island of Gramvousa. Alternatively, you can drive to a point and then walk to the beach. Plus the dazzling view, initially high above the lagoon and then approaching Balos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-5.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6888\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-5.webp 900w, https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-5-300x183.webp 300w, https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/balos-5-768x469.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The return means uphill, of course, but the images you will have seen will have given you\u2026 wings. If you now want to make the more difficult choice, you can walk from Kaliviani, a three-hour hike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The shallow","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7934,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"category":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6884","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-34"],"aioseo_notices":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-25 10:11:09","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6884","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6884"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6884\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15076,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6884\/revisions\/15076"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7934"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6884"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/category?post=6884"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ferrycenter.gr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6884"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
