Full Description
Boarding & Departure
From 9:30 am, we welcome you aboard Romantika Dreams at Mandraki Port. Our crew will assist you as you settle on one of the decks. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis, allowing you to choose the spot that suits you best. Meet your captain and crew, get comfortable, and prepare for a full day at sea.
At 10:15 am, we depart Mandraki Old Port and begin cruising along the east coastline of Rhodes. As we sail, enjoy views of notable landmarks such as St. Nicholas Fortress, the Medieval Old Town, the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist, Fontana Grande, and Rams Rock.
First Stop – Kalithea Bay
Our first swimming stop is Kalithea Springs, home to the famous Kalithea Springs — a striking seaside monument that blends natural beauty, architecture, and history.
Here, you’ll have time to swim, snorkel, dive, take photos, or simply relax on deck while enjoying music and the calm surroundings.
Second Stop – Afandou & Traganou Caves
A traditional three-horn signal from the Captain marks our departure as we continue south past Faliraki toward Afandou Beach. This long stretch of coastline is known for the Traganou Caves and open swimming areas.
You’ll have plenty of time to swim to the beach, explore the area, or relax in the water while our crew prepares a freshly made lunch buffet onboard. The menu includes traditional Greek recipes as well as vegetarian options.
Throughout the cruise, we serve chilled local white and rosé wine, available without limit. The onboard bar also offers cocktails, beer, and champagne at affordable prices.
Final Stop – Anthony Quinn Bay
After lunch, we cruise past impressive rock formations leading to Anthony Quinn Bay, one of Rhodes’ most iconic locations.
This final stop offers time to swim, enjoy water activities, relax on deck, or take advantage of happy hour at the bar. Depending on the mood, the atmosphere may include music, dancing, or even learning a few steps of the famous Greek Zorba dance.
Return to Mandraki Port
At approximately 4:15 pm, we begin our return journey to Mandraki Port. Full of new experiences, beautiful views, good food and drinks — and perhaps a few new friends — we conclude the cruise.
Thank you for sailing with us. We wish you a pleasant rest of your stay in Rhodes and hope to welcome you again on board.
