Holidays to Rhodes

With top-notch sandy beaches, lush landscapes, delicious Greek cuisine and tons of ancient history, Rhodes holidays have all the essentials for an unforgettable trip.

Water way to have fun

Enjoying sun, sea and sand on a picturesque Greek island without a care in the world – could Rhodes be any more perfect? For a classic fly and flop, head to the east of the island, which is where the best beaches can be found (check out Agathi and Tsambika).

There’s a whole wet and wonderful world to be explored beyond the sandy shores, too, so book a boat ride from Rhodes Town to get up close to coves and caves. A day trip to the tiny, colourful island of Symi is also recommended.

More than just sandy shores

Rhodes famously has a drop-dead gorgeous coastline but the island’s interior is equally stunning.

See for yourself by popping into the world’s first landscaped park at Rodini and follow in the steps of the Romans who built it. Then head even further inland to the Valley of the Butterflies. Exactly what it says on the tin, it’s a massive nature park where you’ll be enchanted by colourful swarms of the insects.

Time travel

Rhodes has been catering to swim-up bar-loving, wifi-demanding tourists for years, but you’d be missing out if you didn’t make time for some of its authentic towns and villages.

Explore the island’s medieval Old Town, pay a visit to the hilltop taverns of Monolithos (and its lofty castle, too) and wander about Laerma, which is home to the ancient Moni Thari Monastery.

From Poseidon to your plate

Greece has given the world some absolute classics – and we don’t mean books. We’re talking food: tzatziki, kalamarakia, souvlaki, dolmades and spanakopita, just to name a few. For a taste of the best, pay a visit to Mama Sofia in Rhodes Old Town, where you can expect to loosen your belt a few notches.

For seafood, book a table at Stegna Kozas. It’s a little away from the tourist trail, but after your first bite, you’ll forget how you got there.
