Overview

If you’re dreaming of a slow, sun-kissed day by the sea, this private experience brings together the very best of Rhodes Town with three unforgettable coastal stops, each offering its own unique charm, colours, and stories.

Your journey begins with a gentle panoramic introduction to Rhodes Town. The first stop is the picturesque Mandraki Harbour, a place steeped in legend as the former site of the Colossus of Rhodes.

From there, you’ll admire the striking Cathedral of the Annunciation before passing by the Aquarium of Rhodes, where the waters of the Aegean and Mediterranean seas meet. The experience continues up to Monte Smith Hill, where sweeping panoramic views of the city provide the perfect backdrop for memorable photos.

After this glimpse into the island’s history and beauty, your coastal escape unfolds. The first stop is Kallithea Springs, a destination where elegance and heritage blend effortlessly. Built in the 1920s, its Italian-inspired architecture, intricate mosaics, and iconic rotunda create an almost cinematic setting. Here, you can swim in crystal-clear waters, explore the historic surroundings, or simply unwind beneath the shade of palm trees.

The journey continues to Anthony Quinn Bay, a small yet breathtaking emerald cove framed by dramatic rock formations. Named after the Hollywood actor who fell in love with the area during the filming of The Guns of Navarone, this spot captivates visitors with its incredibly clear waters, where marine life is visible even without a snorkel.

Your final seaside stop is Afantou Bay, a long and tranquil stretch of coastline known for its pristine, Blue Flag waters. The sea here shifts in colour throughout the day, creating a peaceful and ever-changing landscape that invites relaxation.

As the day comes to a close, you’ll return to Rhodes Town, where you can choose to be dropped off at your original pick-up point or near the gates of the Old Town, giving you the opportunity to continue exploring at your own pace.
