Afandou Beach

Discover the 3 most beautiful bays on Rhodes. Sunbathe, swim and snorkel with your friends and family. The first stop is Kallithea Springs, an ancient therapy spa. Next is the Caves of Traganou at Afandou Beach, where you can snorkel inside the rock formations. The third stop is Anthony Quinn Bay, a picturesque pirate shelter with abundant underwater life. Enjoy a lunch buffet of Mediterranean, seafood and vegetarian dishes, prepared and served on board. The crew will keep your glass filled with chilled wine, cold beer or juice throughout the cruise.

Board the "Lagoon", a luxurious catamaran that will be your vessel for this cruise. The first stop on your cruise is Anthony Quinn's Bay, where you will enjoy amazing views and can swim and snorkel. The catamaran will then sail to your second stop of Afandou Beach, where you’ll have 60 minutes to swim and snorkel in a quiet bay. There the crew will throw bread into the sea and colorful fish will gather around you as you explore Rhodes' underwater life. Following that, enjoy a Mediterranean lunch prepared and served on board. The final stop will then be at Kalithea Springs, where you will have 30-45 minutes for swimming and snorkeling.

Get ready for a memorable day of sailing on the Aegean Sea on a day cruise from Rhodes. Explore the most beautiful parts of the east coast with a buffet meal and drinks on board. Swim and snorkel with the equipment provided at Anthony Quinn Bay, Afandou Beach, and Kalithea Springs. Depart from the port of Mandraki in the morning. Enjoy sailing on a traditional wooden boat with free WiFi that will take you to one of the calmest beaches of Rhodes, Anthony Quinn Bay. Swim and snorkel in the emerald green waters for an hour. Next, continue to Afandou Beach. As the crew drops anchor there, have the chance to swim, snorkel or just relax on the quiet beach. Come back on the boat in an hour for a lunch buffet with local flavors and vegetarian dishes accompanied by red or white wine. After lunch, head to your last stop, Kallithea Springs. Take a dip in the long enclave of clear blue water surrounded by rocks and ladders that lead down to the ocean. After 30 minutes in Kallithea, settle in for the return trip to Rhodes Town.

Meet your group early in the morning and hop on the bus which will take you straight to the port. Hop aboard your boat and sit back and relax as you take in the panoramic views of Rhodes' medieval town and the island's stunning coastline from the sea. Swim among the native marine life at your first stop in Anthony Quinn's Bay, well known for its crystal-clear emerald waters and its sheltered rocky beach. Encounter cliffs towering above the shimmering waters, brimming with fish, sea urchins, coral formations, and more. Continue your journey to your next swimming spot at Tsambika Bay, where you can swim over to its 800-meter long fine golden sand beach for some tanning. Spend two hours here, where you can swim to your heart's content before tucking into a delicious buffet meal aboard the boat. No doubt after all the water sports you'll be hungry for the selection of Greek food, including moussaka, veggies, meatballs, pasta, and salad on offer. Re-energized, head to the rocky beach and bay of Afandou, where you can explore its outstanding cave directly from the water. Next, make your way to your last stop, the sheltered Kallithea Bay, for a final swim or a relaxing sun bathe on the boat before returning to Rhodes with your group.

Summer in Rhodes is about nothing but swimming and sunbathing until well into the afternoon. Bask in the radiant sun of Rhodes' East Coast and swim at unique beaches, which strike a most pleasant balance between sandy seafronts and rocky coves, deep and shallow waters. Plunge into Kallithea Bay and Anthony Quinn’s Bay, with a backdrop featuring with some of the most spectacular views, as seen in the The Guns of Navarone film at Afandou Beach. Take in the panoramic views onboard, sipping unlimited drinks and sunbathing, or take a dive into the azure magic of the sea. And, since you'll be working up quite the appetite in every dip in the sea and hour spent on the boat's deck, they'll be an onboard buffet for you to enjoy at your leisure.
