Symi is amazing, however it's overrun by day trips from Rhodes - between 11 and 4 every day.

Luckily, they seldom leave the harbour, so if you catch a water taxi to one of five adjacent beaches (with tavernas) in the morning, and return in the evening, you'd never know they had been.

Agios Marina is the best for swimming and food, but it’s not as quiet as some of the others, which may or may not be a good thing.

On return to the harbour, sit for an hour outside Oranges & Lemons and watch the ridiculously expensive looking yachts return. The harbour's busy then, but in a good way. Easily the best part of the day.

The harbour's tiny and the taxi boats are obvious.

Oranges & Lemons is on the Old Town side, opposite the clock tower (where the Catamaran is often moored).
