Additional Information

The only fast ferry running the Faliraki-Symi itinerary means you can skip the early morning wake up and lengthy bus ride to Rhodes Harbour to find a boat. Our late departure (10:00) and brief travel time of 1 hour and 20 minutes on this brand new vessel provide an exciting journey. Following this, you have three hours to investigate the secluded spots of the Symi island.

Being one of the most scenic and charming Greek islands, Symi boasts a unique appeal.

Arguably the crown jewel of the island is the port of Symi. The hill situated over the port is filled with vibrant, mansion-like homes radiating a magical allure. Plus, each town corner offers a stunning view of the Aegean Sea. The unique port ambience is sure to enchant you!

Returning, we make a pit stop at St. Georges bay for a 30-minute swim break. Here, you can soak in the captivating view and crystal-clear waters!

Must do - I loved the trip (1 August 2024), and the experience was more than I expected. Simi is really worth seeing and the boat ride was a pure joy for someone who lives in the middle of a continent. Personnel was nice and professional and everything was on schedule. Good value for money. Thank you for a memorable experience.

Symi Island Excursion - Overall a 10/10 trip out for the day. The staff and crew were lovely and professional. Symi island was amazing and lovely to walk around. The second stop at St George’s bay was also an amazing experience the water was so clear and beautiful. Would highly recommend this excursion if you visit Rhodes.

Day trip from Faliraki to Symi with fastboat. - Recommended! Nice day! Full day boat trip from Faliraki to Symi. Reservations are a must, because it was full (in high season more than a day in advance). Booked on the beach at a hut at Hotel Apollo the day before. Started on the day itself from Apollo hotel. Small 'Greek Delay', but we had all day, so no problem, relax. Because the water was too shallow, you are first driven to Olympus by coach (5 minutes by bus) and there you get on the boat. Very safe boat. Everything was well taken care of in terms of getting on and off. After a short stopover in the port of Rhodes Town (picking up passengers only) to Symi. Nice trip of about 45 minutes. The wind cools the crossing nicely. Nice view. 2.5 hours in Symi, beautiful town, time to stroll, shop and have a drink or lunch. Then we sailed to a beautiful bay near Symi, and had a wonderful 30-minute swim in cool water. Because Symi city itself is very hot. Good stairs to easily get in/out of water. Back in Faliraki at 5:30 PM. Very nice day. Definitely worth the money! Recommended!
