Itinerary
- 08:30am - Hotel/spot pick up (Private Transfer) Your sailing trip starts by picking you up from the hotel with our comfy air-conditioned vehicle. - 09:00am - Embarkation You will get on the boat and get ready to sail
Ladiko Bay It is a captivating natural pool with swallow waters (up to 4 meters), surrounded by sand, small pebbles, scenic rocks and many trees, some of them reaching down the sea.
Next stop one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, the small bay of Anthony Quinn with the crystal clear waters and the rocky surroundings. The shooting of the movie “The Guns of Navarone” made this beach famous worldwide, which was named after the film’s actor Anthony Quinn. While snorkeling, you will be able to admire a natural aquarium full of fishes. Lunch time has arrived. Enjoy it at Anthony Quinn bay.
Most of the times guests are so attracted by the Anthony Quinn Bay stunning beauty that prefer to stay longer instead of visiting one last bay. If this is not the case in your small group, you have one more stop: Kalithea Bay!

There are several, small, organized beaches here, scattered around the spectacular rocks of Kallithea Bay. Discover the magical seabed of the bay. It is an ideal place for diving and snorkeling as there is abundance of marine life, with an amazing variety of fish in its emerald waters.
4:00pm - Dembarkation You are back at Mandraki harbour at 4pm. 4:30pm - Hotel drop off (Private Transfer) You are dropped off at your hotel with our comfy air conditioned vehicle.

Overall this was a lovely trip it’s definitely worth doing. My friends and I had a really good day. My phone was in a waterproof case round my neck, it snapped and the phone sank to the very bottom. The captain was amazing he prepared our lunch and while we were eating he dove down and retrieved my phone. Such a lovely guy and a great day was had. The water was a bit cold but being from Scotland we didn’t have a problem with that.

Perfect relaxing day spent on the boat. Authentic Greek food and drinks on demand. The springs and bays were beautiful. The experience is definitely worth booking if you enjoy swimming and just as enjoyable if you don’t.

Dear Lisa, We are very happy to read your review and to know that you had such a great time with us! Thank you so much and we hope to see you again soon! Best regards, RhodeTrip Team
Our sailing/snorkeling day on the water around Rhodes was wonderful. John Luca skippering the "Always Somewhere". Of our 10 days, touring everyday, around Greece and the Greek Islands, this was my favorite. We actually sailed out and back which is sometimes not the case with other excursions. The water is fantastically clear and blue. The lunch was delicious as was the local wine and the very personable skipper and his mate. Thank you so much.

We would love to see you again and discover the beauties of Rhodes Island. Until next time...Take care! Thank you, RhodeTrip Team
What a lovely trip we had. The crew was lovely and knowledgeable. They even catered delicious food for all of us include our child who has food allergies. All the stops were lovely and we soaked in the beauty of this island. I’d highly recommend this trip even with young children.

Dear Kathleen, Thank you very much! Every member of our team is trying offer our guests the best possible experience. We would love to see you again and offer you our services, as we have so much more to explore in Rhodes! Take care and stay safe!
Had a full day sailing tour around Rhodes island with great captain and first mate, beautiful boat (downstairs could have been cleaner), great service and we had them drop us off at isolated local restaurant for lunch. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your good words! We value your opinion; it helps us get better. Hope you visit us again!
We wanted to go snorkeling when we were in Greece and our travel curator, Zephyr Travel Curators, helped us find this excursion. The provider, Rhode Trip, was great. They picked us up at our door, took us to the boat, and greeted us when we returned to take us back to our Airbnb. The bays were very beautiful, the lunch was great. The only word of warning - for us lightweights, the water was too cold for snorkeling! There were four of us from our group (all from Seattle) - we got in the water and got out pretty quick due to the cold. The one other person, from Finland, did snorkel and did not mind the water temperature. So, one recommendation, if you are "weenies" like us, go later in the summer when the water temperature is warmer. But overall, we had a delightful time sailing and enjoying the day.
Hi Dena and thank you for your good words! I know, it is a bit cold for us as well that time of the year...Hope to see you again some time soon on the Island, maybe in a hotter month. We have so much more to explore!
Me and my partner went on this trip last week. Our captain, George, was so accommodating and full of information about Rhodes. It was lovely to see so much of Rhodes and all of the bays. Would 100% recommend😊
Thank you guys! We are so glad you enjoyed! Hope to visit again some time
