A unique destination
The word Oil in translation is the container you use to place or store Oil. The beautiful beach got this name because it was a commercial point for loading and unloading olive oil. For the commercial cargo ships of the time, this particular point was the commercial station for transactions with the oil producers of the region as they loaded their cargoes destined for Egypt and the Middle East. Local fishermen have found around the area of Ladikos several clay containers that come from shipwrecks that traded in that area. It is located right behind Anthony Quinn surrounded by caves. The picturesque bay of Ladikos is now a busy beach that is part of several boat tours and also for several underwater activities that take place in the area.
Stop At: Afandou Beach, Afandou 851 03 Greece

The Pebbles from here have been used in the construction of the sidewalks of the Old Town of Roads, the area around AFANTOU, has many monuments tombs and Temple foundations. The coastal settlement here was attacked and destroyed three times by pirates in 620, by the Persians in 653, by Arabs and in 807 by the Turks. After these attacks, the inhabitants left the coastal settlements that were visible to the attackers, and moved a little in land behind the Rocks, where the settlement is located today and which cannot be seen from the sea. The name, AFANTOU comes from the word, Afando, which in Greek means invisible.

Stop At: Anthony Quinn Bay, Faliraki Greece
Next stop is Anthony Quinn Bay which is completely different than Afandou. It is a small Bay surrounded by high rocks with very deep water. In this Bay there are thousands of small fish and you are invited to use the complimentary snorkeling gear, which is at your disposal on the boat. You may also wish to throw bread at the fish that will congregate near by to eat. So far, no fish has ever eaten any of our guests. Not a single bite.
The bay is named after the famous Mexican actor, who starred in the International Blockbuster film, Cannons of Navarone in the 1960s. When Quinn came to Rhodes to shoot the film, he was blown away by the beautiful Bay and asked the Greek state If he could buy it. An agreement was never carried through however and after years of controversy, the Court ruled that it was unenforceable. So Quinn, never got his Bay. Despite this, the locals name the beach Anthony Quinn in his honor. you ready for a day of adventure and beauty?

Wonderful experience, lovely and friendly team, really worth it. Would do it again without a questionThe views were amazing and there was enough time to take a long swim in each stop. The boat was adequately packed, and there was a friendly atmosphere and enough room on board where you didn't feel squashed.

My husband and I went in May on this trip, our last day in Rhodes. We were not quit sure if it would be a good idea, to spend the last day at see. But it turned out to be our best day on our vacation, before going home. The weather was great, the sun was shining and the water was warm enough to go swimming and snorkling. The staff was very friendly and serviceminded. We got very good food, and wine and beer as much as we wanted. If we come back on vacation to Rhodes we will surely make this trip again.The most amazing cruise and excellent staff!

The most amazing cruise and excellent staff! Right from the get go the amazing team at Romantika helped me plan a fabulous hen party for me and 20 friends. We had a bumpy start due to the weather but once we had some sunshine it was pure joy from everyone on board. The food and drinks were incredible all day and the staff were so accommodating to our loud Abba singing and boozy dancing all day! The views and different beaches along the coast are stunning - could not recommend a tour more!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

I went on this trip with two of my friends. We were worried about the water being too cold to swim as it was May. The water was definitely not warm by any means however we were able to jump in and tolerate swimming around at each stop for a bit. The snorkeling was super fun and the water was clear enough to see the bottom most of the time. Regardless of what season you go in, bring lots of sunscreen. The staff are great and were always coming around with wine. Beer was on tap at the bar along with a variety of juices to choose from. The lunch was delicious and they had enough food for people to get second servings. They served a good variety of food so everyone should be able to find something they like. All around it was a great experience and a beautiful trip!We had a full private hire of the boat (around 20 girls) for our friends hen do a couple of days before she was due to get married in Lindos and it was the most amazing day ever!

We had a full private hire of the boat (around 20 girls) for our friends hen do a couple of days before she was due to get married in Lindos and it was the most amazing day ever! In the morning the weather was not great so we had to wait for it to settle for a couple of hours but the crew made sure we still had the full time once we were able to depart the port. They made sure our drinks were topped up all day and the food was delicious. We had our own music playing all day and spent the time dancing, sunbathing (lots of comfortable cushions) and swimming. The captain even dived in to save our friends sunglasses which had sunk to the bottom.
