Remote yet cosmopolitan, Symi is often referred to as the ‘Jewel of the Dodecanese’, thanks to its breathtaking beauty and abundance of Old-World glamour. Experience the low-key charm and mesmerising architecture of this authentic Greek island on a luxurious day cruise to Symi with Mediterranean Sea Cruises.

Your Symi day cruise begins with a free transfer from your hotel to Mandraki Harbour, where we’ll board our boat, Doll, at 09.30 ready for a 10am departure. Grab a comfy seat – sun or shade, your choice – treat yourself to a coffee at the bar, and have your camera at the ready, as we leave Rhodes and set sail for Symi.

Our first stop is St. George’s Bay, a spectacular natural bay on the east coast of Symi that’s only accessible by boat. Here we’ll drop anchor for a refreshing 1.5 hours amid a backdrop of turquoise waters and wild, natural landscape. Slip into the silky, crystal-clear sea to swim, or borrow a snorkel to delve into the colourful underwater world. Alternatively sit back, sip a cocktail and just enjoy the view.
