The fort of Gramvoussa, located on the island of the same name, was built by the Venetians in 1584, to control the passage over the surrounding seas. A strategic place at the entrance of the Cretan waters, it has a long history and has passed through many hands: Venetians, Turks (from 1692), Cretan revolutionaries (1825), pirates succeeded one another. The pirates are said to have amassed a considerable fortune that has yet to be discovered. Amateurs?... On the island lives a rich poultry fauna of about 100 species and the turtle Caretta caretta feeds there.

Cette ile se visite pendant une excursion depuis Kissamos jusqu'à la plage de Balos. Un fort vénitien domine la plage. On peut y monter facilement grâce à un chemin. Le fort est assez ordinaire mais la vue sur la baie est magnifique. Ceux qui préfèrent peuvent se promener le long de la mer ou se baigner puis se reposer sur la plage.
