Symi Day Trip
Description
This full day trip is the easiest way of getting to Symi. The boat leaves from the Mandraki harbour at 9am (though you're advised to get there by 8:30 to guarantee a good seat) and heads across to Symi Island, stopping first at the Southern town of Panormitis, home to a large monastery. You have about an hour here to look around the small town and monastery before you reboard the boat and continue on to the main town of Symi located in the north of the island. On some days the boat will also stop in St Georges Bay to allow a short period of swimming, but on the day I travelled this stop wasn't included. On arrival in Symi the boat ties up right in the centre of the town and you have just over 3 hours to have a look around the town, or to grab lunch, before the boat sets sail direct back to Rhodes harbour, arriving in Rhodes around 6pm.
