Tourist attraction
Anthony Quinn Bay
Rhodes
Pine-fringed cove of emerald and turquoise water, once fought over in a decades-long ownership dispute.
This guide to Anthony Quinn Bay traces how the actor discovered this pine-fringed cove while filming The Guns of Navarone in 1960 and set out to buy it as a retreat for artists and filmmakers. It follows the two conflicting stories locals and Quinn told about what happened next, and the decades-long dispute that followed a 1967 military coup and a Greek land-ownership law parliament never ratified. Look for the rusted gate frame still half swallowed by pine roots above the path down to the water.
