Bus, then boat or road
Balos
Use the published Kissamos Port corridor, then plan lagoon access separately.
How to get here
Why visit
Is Balos your kind of day?
For a Balos visit, KTEL Chania–Rethymno’s current edition provides a Chania–Kissamos Port corridor. Reaching the lagoon is a separate access decision, so verify that leg with its responsible provider before combining plans.
Start with the published corridor
The checked KTEL edition includes Chania–Kissamos Port in both directions.
Access is a separate plan
Verify how you will continue from the port with the provider responsible for that leg.
Check both returns
Separate providers can change their publications independently, so read each current edition.
Practical context
Good to know before you go
- Check both the boat and return-bus plan before leaving Chania.
- A Kissamos Port publication establishes only the KTEL corridor it describes.
- Weather and other providers can affect the separate onward plan.
- This guide does not provide live departure information; use the official operator tools.
Getting here
Build the transport plan separately
KTEL Chania–Rethymno’s checked edition publishes Chania–Kissamos Port. Treat any onward access to Balos as a separate plan with separate evidence.
The verified KTEL corridor ends at Kissamos Port. Lagoon access is a separate leg and is not covered by the bus publication.
- Check the Chania–Kissamos Port publication for your direction and date.
- Verify any boat or other onward access directly with its responsible provider.
- Confirm both return legs before combining independently published journeys.
. Current times and fares remain with the operator.
