Boat Trip to Symi from Rhodes

Fancy a spot of island hopping? Then set sail for the island of Symi, one of the most stunningly beautiful of all the Greek Islands.

Tranquil Symi lies just 23 miles north of Rhodes, nestling inside a claw that juts out from Turkey, its nearest neighbour, less than 4 miles across the sea. Symi town lies at the end of a deep-water harbour - its pastel coloured houses spill down the steep hillside from Chorio - the high town, dominated by a church - and spread around the harbour area of Yialos, making an open circle of light reflected in the deepest blue of the harbour.

It is as near perfect a setting as can be imagined. There are some excellent shops selling herbs, sponges, traditional rugs, pottery and jewellery. One you arrive a Symi, you are free to explore the island at your own leisure.
