    Next stop is Anthony Quinn Bay which is completely different than Afandou. It is a small Bay surrounded by high rocks with very deep water getting there from Afandou takes 15 minutes. We will spend 1 hour In this bay, there are thousands of small fish and you are invited to use the complimentary snorkeling gear, which is at your disposal on the boat. You may also wish to throw bread at the fish that will congregate near by to eat. So far, no fish has ever eaten any of our guests. Not a single bite. The bay is named after the famous Mexican actor, who starred in the International Blockbuster film, Cannons of Navarone in the 1960s. When Quinn came to Rhodes to shoot the film, he was blown away by the beautiful Bay and asked the Greek state If he could buy it. An agreement was never carried through however and after years of controversy, the Court ruled that it was unenforceable. Despite this, the locals name the beach Anthony Quinn in his honor.

    We cruise past Ladiko bay. The word "Ladi" (mean. oil) is the container you use to place or store Oil. The beautiful beach got this name because it was a commercial point for loading and unloading olive oil. For the commercial cargo ships of the time, this particular point was the commercial station for transactions with the oil producers of the region as they loaded their cargoes destined for Egypt and the Middle East. Local fishermen have found around the area of ​​Ladikos several clay containers that come from shipwrecks that traded in that area. It is located right behind Anthony Quinn surrounded by caves. The picturesque bay of Ladikos is now a busy beach that is part of several boat tours and also for several underwater activities that take place in the area.
