Anthony Quinn Bay, Coastal beach in Rhodes, Greece
Anthony Quinn Bay is a small cove on the eastern coast of Rhodes with emerald-colored water surrounded by pine trees and rocks. The natural inlet forms a sheltered beach with limited capacity, enclosed by steep slopes.
American actor Anthony Quinn received this land from the Greek government as a gift in 1960. The grant followed his filming work on a major motion picture on the island.
The beach takes its name from an American actor who fell in love with the island and acquired property here. The cove attracts visitors interested in exploring locations featured in classic films.
The beach has limited parking and requires walking down stone steps to reach the cove. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and allow extra time for the climb back up.
The cove maintains warmer water temperatures year-round thanks to its protected location and surrounding rock formations. This makes it a comfortable swimming spot even during cooler months.
