Details
This full-day boat trip to Lindos is the perfect combination of sightseeing, relaxation and swimming on the eastern coast of Rhodes. Departing from Mandraki Port, you can sit back and relax on the 3 decks of our ferry boat while we first pass Rhodes Medieval Town and then head south along the coastline with its many beaches and villages embedded in a picturesque natural landscape. Along the way, we stop at Anthony Quinn’s Bay, named after the famous Hollywood actor. Here you can jump off the boat and go for a refreshing swim in the clear emerald water of the beautiful cove. If you are interested in discovering the local underwater world, don't forget to bring your snorkeling equipment, you won't regret it!
We continue our journey south and pass the villages of Kolymbia, Stegna, Haraki, Kalathos until we reach the bay of Lindos. Here, the boat will moor for 3 hours and you are free to explore the village on your own. You can stroll through the maze-like streets with limestone houses and visit the most important archaeological site: the Acropolis of Lindos, overlooking the village from the top of a hill. If you are looking to relax, there are also two sandy beaches inviting you to sunbathe, swim and have lunch at one of the local cafes.
After an exciting time in Lindos, you come back on board and feel the sea breeze on your skin as we begin our return journey. Lean back and enjoy the view, or get a bite to eat from our snack bar, as we cruise along the dreamy coastline once more. About halfway, we reach the paradisical Tsambika Bay, where we will stop for another opportunity to take a dip in the refreshing sea. After 20 minutes of jumping from the boat and swimming in the crystal clear water, we head back to Mandraki Port, which is about 1 hour away.

Because the ground staff is patient and efficient and the crew on board and the bartenders are all skilled and polite. We sailed with a general sense of safety along a coast that is beautiful. The acropolis of Lindo Is a marvel that must be seen.
