Rhodes Holidays

EXPERIENCE RHODES

From the medieval Old Town of Rhodes to the hilltop village of Lindos, a holiday to Rhodes is unforgettable. Discover 34 Blue Flag beaches, a 200km-long coastline and endless ways to enjoy the ocean. Spend a day swimming in the waters at Tsambika Beach, or take a voyage out to sea to spot dolphins leaping from the waves.

When it comes to action-packed adventures, you’ll find thrilling rides and slides at Faliraki Water Park and exciting water sports at all the main beaches. Then there are the horseback tours, cooking classes and go kart tracks – everything you need to keep the whole family happy.

Ancient history fans will be in their element with a visit to the Acropolis of Lindos. A temple complex dating back to the 4th century BC, the Acropolis offers a true step back in time, with extra-special views over the bay. Put the Palace of the Grandmaster of the Knights high on your list, too – this impressive medieval fortress towers majestically over Rhodes Town and the harbour below.
