Description
Spend a full day at sea exploring some of Rhodes’ most beautiful—and least crowded—spots.
Start from Kamiros Skala and cruise to Makri Islet, where you’ll have a great chance to spot wild bottlenose dolphins. A marine biologist joins you throughout the trip to share insights about dolphin behavior, the local ecosystem, and aquaculture in the South Aegean—so the experience is as educational as it is exciting.
Next, stop at Stroggyli Islet for a guided snorkeling session in crystal-clear water. Your guides will help you feel comfortable in the sea, point out marine creatures, and take underwater photos during the swim.
Then continue to Alimia Island, an uninhabited gem with calm waters and scenic landscapes. Enjoy free time to swim, snorkel, explore, or simply relax away from the crowds.
To complete the day, sit down for a fresh BBQ lunch by the sea, featuring locally farmed fish, Mediterranean sides, and seasonal fruit. Soft drinks and light alcohol are included. After lunch, cruise back with one more dolphin-spotting opportunity near Makri.
This trip is ideal for families, couples, and nature lovers looking for a full-day experience that combines wildlife, swimming, and great food in a unique island setting.
