The only high speed boat operating the Faliraki-Symi route which means that finally, you don't have to wake up early and join a one hour bus ride to go to Rhodes Harbour, to board a boat! With a late departure (10:00) and only one hour and 20 minutes journey time, this brand new boat offers an exhilarating journey and then three hours freedom to explore the island of Symi and its secrets.
Symi, Greece is one of the most picturesque and charming islands of Greece.
The most impressive spot on the island is hands down Symi port. The hill above the port is packed with crayon-like mansions which emit a fairytale-like charm. Not to mention that any corner of the town boasts a magnificent view of the Aegean Sea. The unique atmosphere of the port will bewitch you!
On the way back we stop at St' Georges bay for a 30 minute swim stop where you can enjoy the breath taking view and the crystal clear waters!

4.00A rough trip with the wing on the way to Symi but all was very well organised and on time. Coming back was much smoother. Symi itself was fantastic.. very pretty place , we had some lunch next to the sea which was lovely. 3 hrs we found was just the right amount of time to spend there. St George’s bay was also beautiful to have a refreshing swim on the way back to Faliraki. Managed to park our car right on the beach next to pick up point…. Amazing day and the highlight of our holiday !!

4.00Great way to visit simi Island, beware very windy especially if you sit at the front. For me would have rather had longer in Simi than the 30 min stop off for a swim on way back
