Rhodes to Lindos yacht cruise: 3 beaches, lunch & swimming

Four anchored bays, snorkelling gear, and a full lunch served underway

A motorboat cruise along Rhodes's east coast stops at four named beaches (Tsambika, Lindos's Megali Paralia, Anthony Quinn Bay and Kallithea Springs) for swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing. Greek lunch and unlimited beverages are served on board. The boat departs from the marina with hotel or port pickup included, and the route adjusts for weather.

The experience

The boat leaves the marina with a small group or larger party depending on which option you book, heading south along the coast toward the first anchorage. Tsambika beach sits 25 km down the island under a monastery perched on a rocky outcrop. The turquoise water and golden sand are the draw, and you'll have time to swim and lie out. The crew drops anchor again at Megali Paralia, the organized beach below the village of Lindos, where the Acropolis sits visible on the hillside above the water: a view most beach visitors don't get because they're on the sand looking up.

Anthony Quinn Bay comes next, the small cove where The Guns of Navarone was filmed, sheltered and calm. Kallithea Springs, the final stop, sits in a bay with shallow, usually still water and a mix of sand and pebbles. The setting is quieter than the others. At each anchorage you can swim, use the snorkelling equipment provided, or simply stay on deck. A Greek lunch is served on board partway through the day, and wine, beer and soft drinks flow freely: no separate charge for any of it. The return timing is flexible. If weather shifts the schedule, the crew will adjust the departure and which beaches you hit.

Transfer from your hotel or the cruise port to the marina is included, so you don't arrange separate transport. The boat itself may differ from the photos depending on availability, but the itinerary and the stops stay the same.

The small group holds up to four passengers. The large group accommodates five to eight. Both follow the same route and stops, so the choice is mainly about the atmosphere and how much space you want on the boat.

How long does the boat stay at each beach?

The itinerary runs five to six hours total, with the time split among the four stops for swimming, snorkelling and relaxing. The exact duration at each bay depends on weather and sea conditions, which can shift the schedule.

Is the lunch included, and what if I have dietary restrictions?

A Greek lunch is included on board, along with unlimited wine, beer and non-alcoholic drinks. Dietary needs should be mentioned when you book so the crew can prepare accordingly.
