Top Rhodes Day Trips

An as described experience which was fantastic as a family of 4 with a 9 year old and a 12 year old - both were happy to swim in the sea with the provided floats and goggles (it was a 32c day in August), the food was really great consisting of some grilled meat and chicken along with salad. Waffles, donuts, drinks, coffee all of it made the day really relaxing. The hosts / crew on the boat were friendly and helpful. Toilets onboard (separated by male / female) and a fresh water hose to hose off the sea salt. Lasted around 6 hours. We sat on the top deck under shade cover which is a must for children i would say (or sit on the lower deck). The top deck had music playing - some of the tracks do contain explicit lyrics which doesn't bother us as a family but I do appreciate that might concern some. Swim stops were well timed, nothing felt too rushed and I would happily book this again. Arrive early to queue for your departure ticket, we were first in the queue and got first choice of where to sit - they fill the boat according to traveller preference, but of course that preference is defined by the order of the queue (first come first served). I would book this boat again if we visited again - thoroughly enjoyable, definitely worth the payment. Aside: I noticed other boats offering 1 swim stop or 2-3 hour boat rides, this seemed to be one of the only bbq / catered options. A note on transfers: We decided to use a local transfer company from our hotel instead which dropped by the old post office (grand building opposite the port), your google map/apple map will show you 'sea lines' which is the specific part of the harbour you want to head to - the whole harbour only takes 10mins to walk the full length even with kids in 30c.
