The Boat

A 15-Metre Sailing Yacht, Built for Comfort

Nikolaos is a genuine 15-metre sailing yacht, not a converted excursion ferry. She hosts up to 15 guests, which means there is always room to stretch out on deck, find a shaded spot or dive straight off the side at every swim stop.

The yacht is based year-round at Mandraki Harbour in Rhodes Town, a short walk from the Old Town, and sails the island's east coast to Ladiko Bay, Anthony Quinn Bay and Kallithea Springs.

The Crew

Two Experienced Crew on Every Trip

Every cruise sails with 2 experienced crew members who handle the boat, prepare your food and look after you from the moment you step aboard. Guests never need a sailing licence or any experience: you are in safe hands the whole day.

The crew know these waters intimately. They choose the calmest bays for the conditions on the day, point out the best snorkelling spots and adjust the route so every trip gets the most out of the weather.

  • Fully crewed on every single trip, no licence needed for guests
  • Route chosen for the day's sea conditions, safety always first
  • Freshly prepared food served on board by the crew
  • Happy to help nervous swimmers and first-time snorkellers

Our Philosophy

Small Groups, Never a Crowd

Plenty of boats in Rhodes pack a hundred people on board. We deliberately keep Nikolaos to a maximum of 15 guests so every trip feels like a day out on a friend's yacht: personal, relaxed and unhurried.

Small groups mean more time in the water, space to relax on deck and a crew who can actually get to know you. It is the reason our guests rate us 5.0 from more than 270 reviews on TripAdvisor, and it is not something we will ever change.

Want the boat entirely to yourselves? Book a private charter and we will build the day around your group.

Meet Simi and Flori

Nikolaos is not run by a rota of seasonal staff. The same two people meet you at Mandraki Harbour every trip: Simi, who skippers the yacht, and Flori, who looks after everyone on board.

Between them they handle the sailing, the anchoring at each swim stop, the snorkelling gear and the food that comes out of the galley through the day. It is why guests write about them by name, and why so many of our bookings come from people who sailed with us last year and told a friend.

If you have a question before you book, you will be speaking to Simi or Flori directly, not a call centre.
