Three bays in one morning, snorkel gear ready when you jump in

A private full-day cruise along Rhodes' eastern coast with three stops for swimming and snorkeling at Anthony Quinn Bay, Kallithea Springs and Ladiko beach, plus lunch, drinks and snorkeling equipment included. The boat takes a maximum of 14 guests, so the group stays small enough to move between sites without a crowd.

The Experience

The cruise departs in the morning and heads down the coast to Anthony Quinn Bay first—the stop with the clearest water and the most fish, so it's where most people spend the longest time in the water. Snorkeling gear is already on board, so you don't pack it or rent it separately. The bay sits between rocky cliffs and has enough depth and visibility that you can see what's actually down there instead of guessing.

The second stop is Kallithea Springs, a thermal spring site that's popular for both the water temperature and the snorkeling. By the time you arrive, you've already been in the water once, so you know the rhythm of the day. The third stop is Ladiko beach, which is quieter than the other two—the operator describes it as the place for people looking for peace and quiet, so if the first two stops felt crowded or you just want to float without the fish, this is where that happens. Lunch and drinks come aboard between stops or after, depending on the day's flow: Mediterranean lunch, seasonal fruit, beer, wine, water and refreshments, plus dessert.

The whole day runs about six and a half hours from start to finish. A live guide speaks English throughout, so you get the names of what you're looking at and the history of the sites without having to read a laminated card. The boat holds a maximum of 14 people, which is small enough that the captain can adjust the schedule if a stop is working well or if someone needs extra time in the water.
