🌟 Our Difference: Why Upgrade to VIP?
Unlike many high-speed "open" boats where passengers are forced to sit under the scorching Mediterranean sun for over an hour one way, our boat is designed for premium climate control and stability.
✅ 100% Shaded & Air-Conditioned: Avoid the heat and the "sunburn trap." Whether you prefer the refreshing sea breeze on our shaded outdoor decks or the crisp air-conditioning of our luxury indoor salon, you are always protected from the sun.
✅ A Smoother, Greener Ride: Many small speedboats are "bumpy" and bounce on the waves, which often leads to seasickness. Our 30-meter yacht-style hull is designed to slice through the waves, providing a stable, "heavy" feel that keeps you comfortable and nauseas-free.
✅ Guaranteed Comfort: We don't just offer a seat; we offer a padded seat. While other high-speed boats have hard plastic benches, we provide cushioned loungers for a truly VIP journey.
✅ Modern & Accessible: Built in 2023, the boat is fully wheelchair and stroller accessible, featuring wide doors and a specialized accessible restroom—a rare luxury in the Rhodes fleet.
🏛️ Your Day in Symi Town
Arrive in style as the boat glides into Gialos Harbor. You will have 3 full hours of free time to explore the most picturesque island in Greece.
✦ Premium Discoveries: Visit high-end jewelry boutiques and local art galleries hidden in the narrow alleys.
✦ Gourmet Seafood: We recommend a seaside table for the signature Symi Shrimp and local white wine.
✦ The Panorama: Wander up the Kali Strata for iconic photos of the harbor from above.
🏊 Extended Swim Stop: St. George’s Bay (Disalona)
On our way to Symi, we drop anchor at the legendary St. George’s Bay. Locked behind towering 300-metre vertical cliffs that protect the emerald waters from the wind, this spectacular bay is accessible only by boat.
✦ 1 Full Hour of Pure Relaxation: Enjoy one hour of uninterrupted access to this secluded paradise. Dive directly into the calm waters from the wide swimming platform of our luxury yacht, or simply relax on our spacious, padded sun loungers.
✦ VIP Snorkeling: The water here is incredibly transparent, making it the premier spot for underwater photography in the Dodecanese. We provide complimentary high-quality snorkeling gear and floating noodles so you can explore the pristine marine life in complete comfort.
