From the Port of Kos: Full Day Boat Cruise to 3 Islands

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.”
