Balos Beach Lagoon On The Greek Island Of Crete

Panoramic view of the Balos lagoon and with the warm sandy beach on the Greek island of Crete in Balos, Chania prefecture, Greece. Tourists swim, sunbath, walk and relax on the white sand of Balos Beach surrounding the famous Balos Lagoon and mountain terrain with crystal clear turquoise waters of the Mediterranean Sea in the northwest of Crete. The exotic tropical landscape with shallow pool-like water, rocky mountains and the nearby Gramvousa pirate island makes Balos one of the most visited Greek beaches and a popular destination for international tourists. The scenic coastal area in the Chania region of Crete attracts visitors arriving by boat or after a trekking path overlooking the lagoon. The economy of Greece heavily relies on tourism, with a heavy travel and hospitality industry. October 4, 2025 (Photo by Nicolas Economou/NurPhoto)
