How to get at base
ARRIVAL IN RHODES ISLAND
Transfer to base
The easiest way to reach our base is to take a Taxi from the airport. Normally, finding a taxi in Rhodes Airport is
easy but in case you are facing difficulty finding one, please call the local Taxi Company: +30 2241069800
(operating 24/7) and they will send one for you. Ask the Taxi driver to take you to the Rhodes New Marina and
drop you off to PIER, where our yachts will be, and our staff will be expecting you there and at our office.
Cost per taxi approx. 30€ (max 4 persons)
Private Transfer
Should you require a Private Transfer, feel free to let us know in advance and we will provide you with quotes
from reliable transfer service providers.
Please have in mind that the transfer cost will be slightly higher as the drivers also calculate the ride towards
the pick-up location as well as any potential delay and whether a nighttime tariff applies.



Rhodes Island can easily be reached by plane or by ferry. The airport caters to many regular international flights to and from Italy, England, Germany, Scandinavian cities and Israel, mostly during the summer, as well as a big number of charter flights to and from all around the world. Domestic flights are run daily from Athens by Olympic Air and Aegean Airlines. Flight time from Athens is approx. 60-80 minutes. The airport is located 15km away from the city of Rhodes, on the west coast of the island. A public bus service connects the airport to the city and taxis are also very easy to find just outside the airport. Taxi will drop you (and your luggage) off right in the marina with 25-30 Euros.
Another way to get to Rhodes is by ferry boat. There are regular ferry lines connecting Rhodes with Athens (Pireaus Port), Thessaloniki, Heraklion, Cyprus and Turkey. The ferry takes approx. 12 hrs to get to Rhodes from Piraeus port (it stops on various islands before), however in the summertime there are also some "express" ferries that take approx. 7- 8 hrs only. No doubt the ferry is a more affordable solution although more "time wasting". For further information on ferry schedule and prices you can visit www.greekferries.gr.
