Anthony Quinn Bay

Located on the eastern coast of Rhodes, this bay gained worldwide fame after the famous actor fell in love with it during the filming of "The Guns of Navarone." For yacht charter guests, it is a unique stop surrounded by high cliffs, sheltered from the wind, and featuring crystal-clear waters. On blue cruise itineraries, it is considered one of the region's best snorkeling spots due to its vibrant underwater life and rocky seabed. In this narrow cove that preserves its natural texture, you can crown your day with fresh seafood and Greek appetizers at the local seaside establishment.

Logistics & Technical

The bay is relatively small and can get crowded during the day, so professional captains prefer an early morning arrival or a late afternoon stay. The seabed is rocky and sandy; the anchor holds well, but care must be taken with the underwater rock ledges. It offers good protection from the "Meltemi" as it is sheltered by the surrounding hills, providing a calm, mirror-like surface.

The bay carries the nostalgic charm of 1960s Hollywood. It is a place where nature remains remarkably pristine despite its popularity. The scent of pine and wild thyme fills the air, and the way the evening light hits the emerald water creates a "golden hour" that explains why it has been a favorite of filmmakers for decades.

Personal Insight

Captain's Note

“
"The water here isn't just blue; it’s an intense emerald. Snorkel near the rocks to see why the 'Zorba' himself claimed this bay as his own."
