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.

Why you’ll love this…

You'll admire Symi's harbour with its pastel-coloured neoclassical buildings
A fast boat service gives you more time to explore the island at your leisure
The cruise includes a stop at Saint George's Bay for swimming or sunbathing
No bus transfer needed, you can board the boat from anywhere on the island

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

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

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

Great speed boat ride but organization was messy as three lines of trips were mixing so you didn’t know what queue you were in to board the tight boat

Great trip to Symi on a fast boat. Quite a choppy sea but that made it more fun. Swim at St George’s Bay was amazing

Waited over 1 hour, boat didn't turn up. Tui say this stop is not in use till later in the month. This was not clear when booking. Don't think a €30 credit is acceptable compensation! A full refund should have been authorised.
