This high-speed boat cruise offers a half-day exploration of Symi, one of the Dodecanese's most beautiful islands. As you arrive, you'll be captivated by the hues of the fishing harbour's waters, framed by pastel-coloured neoclassical buildings and punctuated with church domes scattered across the landscape.

You'll have about three hours to explore the fishing town at your own pace or take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters. The adventure continues as you navigate through Saint George's Bay, where you'll have an opportunity to swim or bask in the warm sunshine on deck before returning to Rhodes.

    Absolutely excellent trip, would highly recommend. The sunset return offers a sea swim en route to Symi. As the bay was enclosed by hillside, the sea looked quite dark & shaded and it put me off swimming but my husband loved it and I wish I had joined him now. Symi island is idyllic, unspoilt, the residents are friendly and helpful and I can’t recommend this trip enough. We did a recce the day before to find out where the boat went from as it wasn’t on the paperwork.

    Die Fahrt war sehr angenehm, auch die paar mal Spritzwasser im Gesicht. Die Insel mit den vielen Treppen war auch ein toller Anblick. Das Baden in diesem verschiedenen Farben vom Wasser und die Klarheit ein Genuss. Unangenehm war das die Reiseleiter, auf Rhodos trotz Buchung über TUI, zu keinen Fragen helfen wollten, da der Ausflug nicht bei ihm selber gebucht wurde

    Wir wussten nicht genau, wo wir zusteigen müssen. Da wäre ein Hinweis nützlich. Wir hatten den TUI Reiseleiter Jakob im Apollo Beach Hotel gefragt. Von ihm bekamen wir ein weiß nicht. Er war nicht interessiert uns zu helfen, da wir online gebucht hatten und nicht über den Reiseleiter, dadurch bekam er ja keine Provision. Die Hilfe von ihm war also nicht gegeben

    Would have been cheaper to book direct through the provider and transfers to the hotel would have been included also.

    Passagiere saßen auf den Treppen, sodass man schlecht durchkam und die Toiletten waren ekelhaft. Die Fahrt an sich war gut und die Crew nett!

    Fijne speedboot, veilig. 3 uurtjes de tijd om symi te verkennen. Op de terugweg stoppen ze in een baai voor een zwemstop.
