Top Rhodes Day Cruises - page 3

If you like to swim/open water or pools swim regularly, this day cruise is perfect. I was on a cruise ship, and the boat for this excursion is about 15-20 min walk from the cruise ship port so very convenient. The boat takes you to three locations to swim, and they provide life vests, pool noodles, and some snorkeling equipment, but most people were using the pool noodles. (I brought my own goggles which I recommend if you have your own). The ocean water was clear and honestly doesn’t have many fish, much more of a swimming and chilling in the water excursion than nature observation. You get around 45 min-1 hour at each stop, and the ride between stops was super smooth and they have a really good music playlist that has music from 1960s to now. The captain likes to dance and shimmy a bit too, but at my sailing, most people were sitting and relaxing. There’s plenty of seating, with most people opting for the sun but there’s some shaded seating on the first floor (of 2 floors) near the bar. The lunch is great, super fresh, there’s an open bar, and they even gave us some baked phyllo snacks filled with cheese or spinach. It is a 6 hour tour, but they were super timely - got us back by 4 pm which I appreciated since I had to get back on the cruise ship. This was my favorite excursion that I did the entire vacation. One note: if you are not comfortable with swimming, you might not feel as comfy in the ocean water even tho it is very mild, there is a current that can pull you back, but just make sure you’re at a comfortable swimming level first. Otherwise, it’s also a lovely lunch cruise on the Aegean Sea if you’re not feeling like getting in the water; it just will be about an hour at each swimming stop.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a great time on this catamaran cruise in Rhodes! The catamaran itself was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, which made the experience very enjoyable. The food was absolutely delicious and exceeded our expectations. The crew also made sure we were well taken care of throughout the trip, and we appreciated their attentiveness. The captain came across as a bit grumpy at times, but it didn’t take away too much from the overall experience. All in all, it was a wonderful day on the water, and we’re glad we chose this cruise!

We walked from our cruise ship and easily found the boat. We were treated like royalty the entire day. We enjoyed the beautiful blue sea, the sights, and the water. The host was fun and gracious. The food was delicious. The stops were perfect, about an hour at each site. Some even went cave exploring. One grandson said that this day was the best of our 11-day trip to Greece. We would recommend this without hesitation.
