Start your day with a pickup from your Rhodes hotel, and then travel by air-conditioned coach to Mandraki Harbour. Here, meet your tour host and then hop aboard your cruise boat to begin your full-day cruise. Settle into a comfortable spot on deck, and then take in views of the harbor, previously the military port of ancient Rhodes, as your boat slips away from land. Pass by three medieval windmills and an array of grand yachts and tiny fishing boats as you cruise through the neck of the harbor and onto the open, azure waters of the Aegean Sea. Glide along Rhodes’ tranquil east coast and soak up views of the pristine beaches before making your first stop of the cruise off Anthony Quinn Bay. Reportedly, actor Anthony Quinn fell in love with Greece after filming The Guns of Navarone in Rhodes, so he decided to buy an isolated bay on the island to form an international center for artists and filmmakers. Here, either stay on deck to watch and snap photos of the secluded bay or jump into the waters for a refreshing swim. Dry off on deck as you cruise toward Afandou Bay. On arrival, recharge with a tasty buffet lunch served on your boat. Savor traditional cuisine such as Greek salad and souvlaki. Beverages are available from the onboard bar (own expense), if you so wish. You’ll be taken ashore to the beach to soak up the sun and let your food settle before continuing on with your cruise. Next, anchor off Tsambika Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Rhodes. Relax on deck and admire the long, golden shoreline or dive off of the boat and swim through the turquoise waters. After cooling off in the sea, return to your boat for the final stop of the cruise, Kalithea Spa. Set above idyllic coves and bays, this historical Italian spa is famed for its once reputedly healing water. Spend a few moments snapping photos before heading back to Mandraki Harbour. Your tour then concludes with a drop-off, by air-conditioned coach, back to your Rhodes hotel.
