Balos (Greek: Μπάλος) is a bay with a lagoon behind it on the west coast of the Greek Mediterranean island of Crete. It is located in the municipality of Kissamos in the regional unit of Chania.

Balos Bay lies on the western side of the now uninhabited Gramvousa peninsula. The peninsula, four kilometers wide in the south, stretches 12 kilometers north from the last settlement, Kaliviani, to Cape Vouxa, the northwesternmost point of Crete. At Balos, five kilometers southwest of Cape Vouxa, Gramvousa narrows to about one kilometer in width.
