About This Tour
Symi is often referred to as the ‘Jewel of the Dodecanese’, thanks to its breathtaking beauty and abundance of Old-World glamour. Experience the low-key charm and mesmerising architecture of this authentic Greek island on a luxurious day cruise to Symi with us. Grab a comfy seat – sun or shade, your choice – treat yourself to a coffee at the bar, and have your camera at the ready, as we leave Rhodes and set sail for Symi. Our first stop is St. George’s Bay, a spectacular natural bay on the east coast of Symi that’s only accessible by boat. Here we’ll drop anchor for a refreshing 1.5 hours amid a backdrop of turquoise waters and wild, natural landscape. At 13h, we’ll set sail once more as we prepare to arrive in one of the most beautiful harbours in Greece. The first sight of Symi harbour is unforgettable. Enjoy three leisurely hours in Symi. Do try the island’s signature dish – Symi shrimp. Return boarding begins at 16h for a 16.30 departure, arriving back in Rhodes at 18h.
