Back to newsThe municipality of Kissamos, located in western Crete near the Gramvousa peninsula, has opened registration for free swimming lessons. The program is open to residents and likely includes children and beginners looking to learn water safety skills. Kissamos is a coastal town with access to several beaches including Balos lagoon and Falasarna, making swimming a practical and enjoyable activity for anyone spending time in the area. Tourists staying in or passing through western Crete may find this initiative reflects the community's strong connection to the sea.
