Symi

Beautiful Island with such friendly locals and businesses. Our family enjoyed our day trip here, from tasty food to great little shops to beautiful scenery. So glad we came.

There were a lot of fish swimming. And very clear water from what I’ve seen I don’t find this island really spectacular but it is worth the 40 euro to make the visit.

Symi Island left me with the most wonderful impressions. I reached it from Rhodes by high-speed boat, and along the way we were lucky enough to see playful dolphins dancing in the waves, which was an extraordinary bonus! Upon arrival, I was mesmerized by the sea’s extraordinary deep blue color. The houses lining the harbor are painted in bright, unique colors creating an unforgettable, postcard perfect atmosphere. The island’s architecture is stunning: from neoclassical mansions to narrow stair lanes up to Ano Symi, with charming churches and old fortress walls. One of the highlights is the beautiful Monastery of Archangel Michael at Panormitis, still active and richly decorated, a place filled with spiritual and historical energy. Here, you can enjoy authentic Greek food, swim in the crystal-blue waters, and of course, purchase natural sea sponges, the island is famous for an incredible variety of them. Symi is a place that stays in your heart long after you leave. Fantastic experience!

Beautiful little island. Beautiful houses, cute cats, delicious ice cream and fun souvenir shops! Highly recommend doing a day trip to this island. We stayed for about 4 hours and it was perfect!

100% take the day trip ferry to Symi from Rhodes - was likely the highlight of our whole trip! A gorgeous island (just make sure you bring your walking shoes as there’s a lot of stairs to climb in the centre). Beautiful scenery, stunning photo opportunities, and a variety of shops and restaurants. It’s easy to find your way around and you’ll encounter countless of friendly kitties along the way - No way you’ll regret the journey

Symi is a beautiful island of Greece, with a beautiful harbour, clean water, beautiful laneways with nice architectural detailing. Spending a day trip or spend a week, it’s just a nice place, and was more enjoyable than Positano in Italy. Very relaxing and is well visited by the local Mediterranean country’s such as Greek, and Italian families. Food options are varied but generally found food to be of a high quality no matter where we ate. Getting there is via Ferry. And we found the ferry service on time and reliable, if travelling in the busy periods do allow extra travel time in between ferry rides 2 hours is suggested for good reason. Only failure is signage when arriving to your destination on most of the islands not much signage to help in where you need to go, especially the first ferry ride coming from another country.
