Boat Trip to Symi Island with swimming stop at St George Bay

5.Boat Trip to Symi Island with swimming stop at St George Bay

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,753 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $48

Spend about nine hours sailing from Rhodes to St George Bay for a one-hour swim, then continue to Symi for three hours of free time. Expect a large boat, onboard restrooms, a bar, and optional hotel pickup. The route is scenic, but the sea can be choppy and seating may be tight.

“The places we visited were truly spectacular, the sea was beautiful, and the island of Symi is a very charming little town. What we didn’t enjoy, however, was the transportation by boat. Although it was large, it was far too crowded. On the way there, we couldn’t even find two seats, but only one, which forced us to take turns sitting down, and that too under the scorching sun. Our first impression wasn’t great, and we even considered getting off because it was just too crowded. Moreover, in order to find a seat on the return trip, we had to waste 40 minutes of the excursion just to make sure…”

Rhodes: Lindos Cruise with 2 Swim Stops

6.Lindos Cruise with 2 Swim Stops

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 1,404 reviews · 8 - 8.5 hours · from $47

“Trip was great! Boat was really spacious and clean. There were toilet facilities that were also kept in good condition. The bar was well stocked with drinks and snacks. Really relaxing journey and the swim stops were fun! The only improvement I would give is that the journey back seemed to take a lot longer (unsure of the reason for this- may have been one so apologies if so!) And would’ve loved a little more time in Lindos, even 30 more mins!”

8.Cruise to Chrissi Island with Swimming

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,040 reviews · 6 hours · from $47

Sail from Ierapetra to Chrissi Island aboard the Aristovoulos, with about 3.5 hours near shore for swimming, snorkeling, and beach time. You cannot enter the island’s interior, but you can reach the beach by swimming or a small transfer boat. Food, drinks, masks, fins, and boards are available.

“The island was very pretty and the water was warm. The minuses was that people hasn't been told to take umbrellas as very hot and nowhere to hide apart from few trees and that there are stone everywhere so special shoes needed. It would be helpful to add this to the main list together with towels etc. Also people should know that they have to swim to shore not long but still and there are no proper ladder or anything to get out but rope. Apart from this it was a nice trip.”

Makarounas Fishing Boat Trip with swimming stop and BBQ on board

9.Makarounas Fishing Boat Trip with swimming stop and BBQ on board

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 831 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $78

Spend about five hours fishing off Rhodes, then swim and snorkel near the rocky coves of Kallithea Springs. Angelo and Captain Vasili help with the gear and serve a generous onboard BBQ, Greek salad, fruit, and drinks. The group is limited to 12 people.

“We booked the fishing trip in advance for a day trip with our 6 children aged 7-14. We all had a lovely time. We were welcomed on board with drinks. The fishing was fun and we were helped to bait up and untangle lines etc.. The cave swimming was such an enjoyable experience and to then come back on board with the most wonderful food all laid up ready, presented wonderfully. Memories to last a lifetime. My only criticism is that 3 hours fishing was a little too long for younger children and the toilet on board needs a good clean and a proper lock on the door.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 707 reviews · 1 day · from $127

“We had a great day out on Koryfo with a welcoming and friendly crew. We took our 13 month old son and everyone was very accommodating and helpful. The day was very relaxing, food was super tasty and fresh. The crew members were very knowledgeable and answered any questions anyone had. The amount of people on the boat was just right, not crowded. We stopped in very beautiful & serene spots. The water was beautiful, plenty of opportunities to swim & snorkel. It’s not a guided tour but as mentioned above all the crew members still gave us plenty of information. If you want a guided tour with stops to…”

13.Sun & Sea 6 Hour All Inclusive Swimming Cruise with Greek BBQ & Unlimited Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 671 reviews · 6 hours (approx.) · from $78

Cruise from Rhodes Sea Lines at Mandraki Marina to Anthony Quinn Bay, Kallithea Springs, and Traganou Beach. You get three swim stops, snorkel gear, Greek BBQ, donuts, hot dogs, waffles, coffee, and unlimited drinks. A top-deck bean bag costs extra and is worth considering for shade and comfort.

“The ship and its crew were lovely and very helpful. They took us to beautiful locations to swim and have great instructions for safety, and they kept things running on schedule. Our one drawback was that there was loud music playing the entire time, often with obscene lyrics. We were hoping for a quiet sailing but the music really made that impossible.”
