After breakfast and the usual vessel formalities/taking fuel, we will begin to cruise towards Symi, part of the Dodecanese Island group and known as one of Greece’s most beautiful little islands. Our first stop will be Nanou Bay, where we will enjoy lots of swimming in its crystal-clear waters, surrounded by lush forests and green hills.

In the afternoon, we will cruise to Symi Port. Be sure to have your camera ready to capture wonderful images of this small, fairytale-like Greek village. You can choose to dine ashore at one of the numerous idyllic tavernas lining the marina; the local tavernas on Symi are very tempting. Overnight stay in Symi.

Today, we leave Symi port after breakfast will head over to St. George Bay or one of the other many bays for swimming, lunch and relaxing in the beautiful waters. Later in the afternoon, we will cruise towards Panormitis, located in the southern part of Symi. Here, you can visit the Monastery of the Archangel Michael Panormitis. This Greek Orthodox Monastery, built in the early 18th century, is still inhabited by monks. It attracts visitors from around the world, and many Greeks pay yearly homage to St. Michael of Panormitis. Keep in mind, if sea conditions are not optimal, we may need to cancel our visit to Panormitis and go to Pedi instead, a traditional fishing village with some fish taverns and a combination of fine soft sand/small stone beach. 

Leaving behind Symi, today we cruise towards the beautiful island of Tilos. Tilos is surrounded by high and rocky mountains, steep coasts, beaches with transparent waters, and caves. We will enjoy the day at Akrogiali Bay, where you can relax and take in the stunning scenery. Late afternoon, we will enter Tilos harbor. This will give you a chance to stretch your legs and walk around the charming little town. In the centre of the island, there is an abandoned village called Mikro Chorio, situated on a hilltop and reachable by taxi or bus. You can also visit Mikro Chorio in the evening to have a drink at the bar and experience its unique atmosphere.

Depending on sea conditions, we will start cruising either before or after breakfast and begin our sail towards Chalki, a perfect destination for peace and privacy, as tourism has not developed much here. With its crystal-clear beaches, we will enjoy the day at Trakhia Bay or one of the other beautiful bays. Later in the afternoon, we will cruise to Nimporio, the island’s only village and main port. The beach promenade of Nimporio is lined with charming cafeterias and taverns. Be sure to visit the local church, where there is a mass between 7:30 and 8:00 pm. After a day of exploration and relaxation, enjoy a traditional local Greek seafood dinner or meze at one of the many local taverns run by the local fishermen. Overnight stay in Chalki.

Today, we have an early start towards Rhodes Island and the famous Anthony Quinn Bay and later on, Kallithea Beach. Breakfast will be served either on the way or upon arrival to the bay, depending on weather conditions. 

The bay is named after the actor who bought this part of the island while filming “The Guns of Navarone”, a popular war movie of the early 60's. Afterwards, we cruise to Kallithea Beach, where we will spend the rest of the day. Kallithea is home to beautiful coves and beaches, perfect for swimming and relaxing. Its vibrant atmosphere and charming surroundings make it a delightful destination for our last full day and our Captain's dinner in the evening.

Leaving Kallithea beach, we will make our way back to the New Marina in Rhodes, giving us plenty of time to explore one of the best-preserved medieval towns in the world and a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site.

We spend the night there and sadly, the following day will be the last breakfast onboard!
