About This Experience

Set sail from Mandraki Harbor aboard a luxury catamaran and enjoy sailing along the East coast beaches of Rhodes. Visit 3–4 swimming spots — Anthony Quinn Bay, Afandou Caves, Ladiko Bay and Kalithea Bay — with approximately one hour at each location. The catamaran anchors offshore; shore access is by swimming. Includes a full Greek buffet lunch, unlimited drinks, breakfast, seasonal fresh fruits, snorkeling gear, floating noodles and life jackets.

Catamaran Day Cruise — East Coast of Rhodes stays on the sheltered east shore of Rhodes, so the day feels relaxed even when the Meltemi blows offshore. Expect multiple swim stops at famous bays such as Anthony Quinn and Kalithea, a buffet lunch on full-day departures, and plenty of deck time between anchors. It is a strong choice for families and first-time boat guests who want swimming and scenery without a long open-sea crossing. We match you to the operator and departure point listed below.

East coast day cruises stay in sheltered water, so seasickness is uncommon. Lunch is often a buffet served while at anchor; grab a plate when service opens to avoid the rush. Bring reef-safe sunscreen if you snorkel near rocky coves.
