You step off the cobbled quay at Rhodes New Marina and the catamaran rocks gently as the harbor lets you go. The Aegean opens like a pale sheet ahead; the boat trims its sails and the shore recedes — limestone cliffs and scrub brush giving way to crystalline water that seems to dare you to dive in.

You step off the cobbled quay at Rhodes New Marina and the catamaran rocks gently as the harbor lets you go. The Aegean opens like a pale sheet ahead; the boat trims its sails and the shore recedes — limestone cliffs and scrub brush giving way to crystalline water that seems to dare you to dive in.
This short coastal run visits two of Rhodes’s most photographed stretches: Anthony Quinn Bay, carved from ancient limestone and famous after the actor filmed here in the 1960s, and the restored Kallithea Springs, a turn-of-the-20th-century spa complex favored during the island’s Italian period. The geology is classic southern Aegean: fractured limestone and pockets of pebble beaches, with sheltered coves formed where rock met wave over millennia.
Culturally, the route brushes Rhodes’ maritime identity — small fishing coves, wartime fortifications glimpsed on the skyline and the island’s long relationship with sea travel. Locals still value these bays for calm swims and cool breezes.
Practicalities: expect about 4–5 hours on the water with two main anchor stops for swimming and snorkeling. Drinks (including two alcoholic beverages) and unlimited soft drinks are provided; snorkel masks are available. Bring swimwear, reef‑safe sunscreen and a light wind layer for open-water breezes. If you’re prone to motion sickness, take precautions before boarding; the sea is usually gentle in the morning and afternoon runs but can pick up.
The trip suits travelers who want a relaxed, active half day—equal parts lounging on deck and salty immersion in clear Aegean water.
