Rhodes is the most important island of the Dodecanese. Famous for its medieval town and its knights\u2019 quarter, Rhodes is an excellent starting point for a <a href=https://www.samboat.com/"https:////www.samboat.com//boat-rental//greece/" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">yacht charter in Greece<\/a>. Of course, don\u2019t forget to spend some time ashore, visiting this large hilly island and strolling through the old town. Then hoist the sails and let the white houses slowly drift away.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DAY 2: Rhodes\u2192Symi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>22 nautical miles,<\/strong> <strong>4 hours 20 minutes <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Symi will capture you immediately. As you approach the coast, you will see the picturesque little harbour with its colourful houses and the fishermen\u2019s boats and the mountains in the background. This stunning island is known for its secluded beaches and coves. It will give you unforgettable memories!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DAY 3: Symi\u2192 Nisyros<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>23 nautical miles, 4.5 hours of sailing<em> <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img src=https://www.samboat.com/"https:////lh6.googleusercontent.com//GDgQqPOdIRme7_eWkTUzMLd3WuMxYLss3s38almtAd7WiCxwkdK7gs9Yuk4JvG_91WGeK_yUklRJWkmZbpn1e046Qhjk9i0vzxAKvIXQtL4iKiyon0nOvoqCieZYnOJKLQyDLwGg/">/n/n/n/n
Set course for a volcanic island unspoilt by mass tourism. With its landscapes, volcanic plains and black sand beaches, Nisyros has been voted one of the most beautiful islands in the Dodecanese. It has a small harbour called Mandraki, with pastel-coloured houses and tavernas. Don\u2019t leave without visiting the village of Nikia. From there, you have a 360\u00b0 view of the island.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For an overnight stay, we advise you to dock at the port of Pali to stay more sheltered.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DAY 4: Nisyros\u2192 Tilos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>17 nautical miles, 3 hours 20 minutes<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img src=https://www.samboat.com/"https:////lh5.googleusercontent.com//8bJ6hZEU9FQ_jUYU_zpcCCDstUrqkK_iUXD0aaVGNreeubqgYmONKhGMfq2OWBt6f-QZ59MiebbbYHiagxJkT4mplVObqskYpQDTrhO_cOYJyUIQ9qnj937q708TtT285hsnR0pw/">/n/n/n/n
Tilos is known for its friendliness and authenticity like many of the islands in the region. The island\u2019s population has decided to opt for gentle tourism, respecting nature and heritage. If you want to spend a dream holiday away from the stress of busy modern life, you will enjoy your stay here.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DAY 5: Tilos\u2192 Chalki<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>21 nautical miles, 4 hours of sailing<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img src=https://www.samboat.com/"https:////lh4.googleusercontent.com//SZvJyUqwyyWc6YCuQUGDX7aPERu2XddDFqEtU2LdY_xx7ULlF0SWgJovK6wUuaOPM0inLwB5q1-gSq5gd_UFLjIpH-yt2OEecc4Gi6awWcl8FA04FDFN40V3IRQO6260AWSVyPpb/">/n/n/n/n
On this fifth day of sailing, we highly suggest you visit the island of Chalki. For nature lovers, this relaxing and wild island offers a multitude of secluded beaches. It has several medieval ruins and churches, which can be reached by pleasant hiking trails. Designated by UNESCO as the \u2018Island of Peace and Friendship\u2019, favour Emborios Bay or Potamos if there is a Meltem fort.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DAY 6: Chalki \u2192 Aliminias<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6 nautical miles, 1 hour of sailing<\/strong><em> \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take the time to wander around and then linger in its charming bay, it is home to the remains of a WWII aircraft.

The boat in Rhodes Marina was very well maintained and clean, and the Istion staff were very good. An excellent had-over briefing, and support, and staff were there to help when returning. Check out was straightforward. In all a great charter, and we would use Istion again.
An excellent charter with a Professional and friendly Company who maintain their yachts to a very high standard. Would highly recommend Istion Yachting
