Im on a boat

Jade_K, Aug 2026
Would really recommend - very chilled beautiful, swim spots, delicious food and very friendly staff :) the cocktail/punch was also a lovely surprise

Family friendly well catered and a great addition to our trip

Paul_D, Aug 2026
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.

Misleading description, explicit music, not what we expected

Krista_H, Jul 2026
This was not a great experience for us, we felt the description was misleading. The food and bar was located next to the smoking section. It was chaotic from start to finish. They played explicit music throughout the day, even with children. Do not recommend.

Great way to experience Rodos Greece at it's best. The food, people and trip was very enjoyable. I highly recommend

Cynthia_S, May 2026
Everything was well organized and on time. The food and drinks were delicious and enjoyable. It was well worth the trip. If you like to snorkel the stops were beautiful and they gave us plenty of time to enjoy our swim. I would definitely do this trip again. Well worth the money and the day spent on the water.

Shipwreck

Cassandra_Z, May 2026
I would have left a 5-star review, but our boat crashed into some rocks, and we couldn't continue the tour. The crew just kept telling us to go to our seats and wouldn't tell us what was going on. The last company representative who spoke to us after we were rescued by the Hellenic Coast Guard said it was a "sh*t move" for us to contact Viator, which I think is ridiculous. It was a great experience up to then, and even after the crash, the crew were all super great, just trying to make sure we were all okay and having a good time. Eventually, we were told we would get a full refund, and we were offered a free tour on a smaller boat the next day, which we had to decline. Seems like a good company except for that rep.

Got to sit on the...

Isabela_V, May 2026
Got to sit on the comfiest chairs ever on the boat and choose sun or shade. It was a gorgeous day and the music was great, group was great. The stops were so beautiful and perfectly timed. The lunch served was also fantastic. The crew was so kind and fun. Would definitely recommend, for a beautiful day out on the water!

Great cruise for a day...

Christian_B, Sep 2025
Great cruise for a day swimming in the med and soaking up the sun and BBQ. Ship was great and the staff friendly

Coast Tour

David_B, Aug 2025
Lovely experience with a really friendly crew. Food and drink flowing freely was a bonus but the coast was fantastic

Awesome Trip!

Lauren_C, Jul 2025
Such a great trip! The staff make it fun and interact with you, the Greek bbq was amazing, the time you get to swim is great as well. Just overall a really awesome day!

Book this one

Steven_M, Jul 2025
Excellent boat trip and swimming in the sea. About 6 hours, great food and crew were great. The tour operator organised transfers also. All in all stress free and enjoyable

What a great boat trip

Adrian_F, Jul 2025
Fun packed, well run day. Food was plenty and the drinks were flowing. 3 stops for swimming with some lovely views. Fantastic clear water. Booked to have a bean bag top deck which was great.

Day of heat

Karen_J, Jun 2025
It gets extremely hot on top deck but there was plenty of room on lower deck to take a break the team are so friendly with loads to drink and eat. Really enjoyed the day and would do again.

Highly recommend

Lauren_K, Jun 2025
Amazing experience, couldn't fault a thing! Everyone who works on the boat is lovely and welcoming, the food and drinks were delicious and plentiful and the stops were just long enough to get some decent swimming in! Would highly recommend!

Fun time on the boat!

Waverly_R, May 2025
Thanos and his crew were amazing. We had a great time. They thought I looked like Captain Smith from the Titanic, so that was cool. Great swimming and really enjoyed it. The chicken skewers for lunch were tasty. Highly recommend!

A fun day out

Debbie_B, Oct 2024
An absolutely amazing day. From start to finish, the crew were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. 3 swim stops, unlimited drinks and a few snacks, Greek BBQ for lunch. I was very nervous about going in the sea on the first swim stop as im not that strong a swimmer, but one of the crew members, Vamos (apologies if that's wrong), spoke to me about it and I 'pinky-promised' with him that I would go in on the next swim stop. I did go in the sea for 10 minutes with a couple of noodles and am really glad I did 😀 Vamos still checked on me a few times whilst I was in the sea, to make sure I was ok even though my husband was with me. Once I got out, he high-fived me and said well done! A brilliant day out- would highly recommend.

Relaxing, fun and comfortable

Katy_J, Oct 2024
Jumping off the boat! Though I was too anxious to jump from the top of the boat, a lot of people did and it looked like great fun! The staff on the boat were lovely and the food they made fresh was also lovely, highly recommend this boat trip!

Good experience

Kin_F, Oct 2024
Very very friendly and helpful crew Good for value Strongly recommend However. They can do little better by explaining to customers how and where to locate their reception desk at the pier Because there are several booths

Missed it- but heard this is fun!!

Melissa_B, Oct 2024
Sadly because we had a few in our group not feeling well this day, we missed this tour. However, I’ve heard this is a fun day on the water!

Meh

Michael_I, Oct 2024
Booked this tour because it sounded like a good way to enjoy the day, having an open bar, lunch and a few spots to swim.. Well the open bar is cans of the same beer, cask wine and 2 flavours of cocktail which is mostly juice, the swimming gets a bit boring after a while as you're in pretty deep water and can't really loaf around and if you don't pay to sit up top you'll be sitting on a bench at a table for the entire trip which is rather dull The staff were top-notch though and the food was good

Amazing boat tour would recommend!

Louise_R, Sep 2024
Lovely boat tour the staff are so helpful and kind! The unlimited drinks plus all the great food was fantastic. We had 3 swimming stops and the boat was not busy at all so had plenty of room on our top deck bean bags! Overall had a fantastic trip and would highly recommend!

Amazing experience from start to finish

Sarah_M, Sep 2024
We did this excursion on the last day of our holiday. We had an amazing time from start to finish. The crew were friendly and welcoming and very helpful. I would recommend paying the extra for top deck as the bean bags were very comfortable. The variety of drinks were excellent and available for duration of the trip. We had donut's, hotdogs, Greek salad with chicken souvlaki’s and waffles with chocolate sauce - all were lovely. The 3 swimming stops were amazing, the sea in Faliraki was a little strong but the crew were there if needed. Anthony Quinn Bay was our favourite it is so beautiful. There are noodles, life vests and snorkels on board so you don’t have to miss out on the experience. We can swim but used a noodle for safety. We took our own full face snorkels which I would recommend as not used anything before. Would highly recommend this trip.

Sad experience

Margaret_o, Sep 2024
We never got on the boat. No one met us at the pier as I was told someone would. I called and was told a 5 min walk It took at least 25 mins. The boat left. Obviously not happy

Avoid

Hazel_B, Sep 2024
Really unhelpful company, don’t want to help or accommodate or even reply to you even when you have an urgent issue.

Amazing trip

Katrina_I, Sep 2024
Absolutely amazing trip, from start to finish. All the staff were amazing, so polite. Would definitely recommend.

Must go First Class, Top Deck

Grace_R, Sep 2024
Definitely splurge for the upper deck beanbag. You will have the option for shade or sunny. It’s like flying first class. I actually felt sorry for the blokes in the ‘economy’ lower deck with tables and wooden benches…a totally different experience! It was an easy 15min walk from the cruise ship dock. Sailed to the 1st stop Kallithea Bay for an hour while they feed you donuts. Swam 45 mins (no fish), then back to boat for hotdogs. Sailed to 2nd stop Anthony Quinn Bay for 40 mins. Swam 45 mins (saw fish), then they feed you BBQ, the best tzatziki, bread and super-fresh Greek salad. Sailed to 3rd stop at Faliraki Bay in ~30 mins, swam, then they feed you waffles with chocolate. Staff is super friendly and just darling!!!

An almost perfect day at sea

Natalie_C, Sep 2024
The ship and its crew were lovely and very helpful. They took us to beautiful locations to swim and have great instructions for safety, and they kept things running on schedule. Our one drawback was that there was loud music playing the entire time, often with obscene lyrics. We were hoping for a quiet sailing but the music really made that impossible.

Awesome Day out on the Water

Kevin_B, Sep 2024
What an awesome day out on the water! It was one of the best things we did on our holiday. Staff were phenomenal and the offerings were great including a BBQ and whatever you wanted to drink. Well worth the money for a 6 hour experiance. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a day out swimming and meeting new friends. We will certainly be back one day soon.

Sleeper Excursion, Super Fun

Mitchell_F, Sep 2024
We had great time and the crew was excellent. Went to great Swim spots, Food and drink was always available. Got back with time to walk back to cruise.
