1.Full Day Boat Cruise to 3 Islands

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 5,137 reviews · 7h 30m · from $35Our pick

Spend about 7.5 hours aboard the blue Odyssey from Kos, visiting Kalymnos, Plati, and Pserimos. You get a fjord-side village stop, several chances to swim, a Greek buffet lunch, affordable cocktails, and possible dolphin sightings near local fish farms. English-speaking crew guide the day.

“Was a great experience, best part was to be able to get into Kalymnos and the other small islands around, to know the habitants of the place. The boat crew was amazing, creating a vivid atmosphere at the board, food was good , cocktails at the bar affordable. We manage to observe 🐬 during our trip which was a bonus. The only inconvenient I would say the boat was a bit crowded, somehow stiff 6 persons in a 4 people seat.”

The only thing I didn’t like was that our transfer was a little late picking us up in the morning so this delayed things a little bit & we didn’t get much time to explore one of the islands. But everything else was fantastic. Thank you”

Heavy spray and tilting which we loved as it added to the experience. We stopped at two beautiful spots, which gave us time to relax, swim, snorkel and take in the scenery. Lunch was lovely, and the drinks on board beer, wine, or soft drinks added a nice touch. A great day out on the water — highly recommended! Let me know if you’d like it to sound more casual, romantic, or adventurous!”
