To Chalki & Alimia Island

Express boat Rhodes to Chalki with Swim-Stop

Leaving the City of Rhodes, Mandraki Harbour at 10:00 on our express Boat Rhodes to Chalki, either Aphrodite Princess or Aphrodite Queen, you’ll be in Chalki by 12:00 noon.

In this idyllic corner of the Aegean — once renowned for its sponge divers and graceful stone mansions — you’ll have three hours to explore Chalki’s picturesque harbour, winding alleys, and serene surroundings. On the return journey, enjoy a refreshing 30-minute swim stop in the crystal-clear waters of Alimia Island… the perfect recipe for an unforgettable day out, especially with a 90% chance of spotting dolphins!

Halki, the jewel of the Dodecanese, is renowned for its serene beauty, elegant neoclassical mansions, and rich maritime heritage. Once a thriving centre of sponge diving and boat building, the island today offers a haven of peace and authenticity. Stroll through the colourful harbour of Emporio, explore the abandoned stone village of Chorio, and swim in crystal-clear waters that invite pure relaxation. As part of Greece’s GR-eco Islands initiative, Halki embraces sustainable, slow-paced living — a true escape where time seems to stand still.
