The first breath of sea air comes before the gangway lifts: gulls wheel above the harbor, the boat eases into the sheltered blue, and the coastline of eastern Rhodes unrolls like a map of coves and cliffs. Passengers settle into shaded benches as the skipper charts a course past rocky promontories and long pebbly beaches, pausing where the water begs for a jump. The day moves in measured chapters — swim stops, a beach transfer, and a leisurely lunch on board — all framed by the island’s dry, aromatic breeze.
easy.
8–9 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; participants should be comfortable boarding tenders and swimming short distances.
The excursion is about 8–9 hours (approximately 510 minutes) with swim stops at Anthony Quinn Bay, Tsampika, Stegna (lunch), and a final swim at Traganou or Afandou bay; there’s a photo stop at Kalithea Springs on return.
A lunch is included on board; drinks beyond basic water/coffee are usually available for purchase—bring cash for extras.
Transfers use small tenders; they require stepping into/out of a smaller boat onto pebbly beaches, so mobility should be reasonable and water shoes are recommended.
The trip is rated easy but not suitable for very small children; non-swimmers should remain near the boat and request a flotation aid from the crew if needed.
Rhodes’ east coast shows layers from ancient Greek settlements through medieval Knights’ influence to small modern fishing communities; beachside ruins and springs mark centuries of human use.
Avoid anchoring on seagrass (Posidonia) meadows, use reef-safe sunscreen, and follow crew guidance to minimize disturbance to marine life.
