Rhodes Old Town
A UNESCO medieval quarter inside the walls — cobblestones, gates, the Grand Master’s Palace.
17 min walk from center
#2
Lindos
White-cube village under an acropolis 50km south — day-trippable, and prettier for an overnight.
#3
Faliraki
Beach + resort strip north of the airport — family-friendly, water park, safe swim beach.
11 km from center
#4
Prasonisi
Southern tip — windsurf mecca where two seas meet across a sand isthmus.
Getting around
Local buses (KTEL) reach every beach + Lindos from Rhodes Town for €2–8. Renting a car opens the west coast + inland villages.
Don’t drive in Rhodes Old Town — parking is impossible. Diagoras Airport (RHO) is 20 minutes from town; taxis €25.
