The island of Rhodes is the ideal holiday destination

The island of Rhodes is located in the middle of the turquoise waters of the sea.

In addition to the beaches lining the Aegean Sea, Rhodes also has authentic mountain villages with unobstructed views. For enthusiasts, it is the dream opportunity to discover the mythological origins of the city. It is a small paradise to be enjoyed during a long weekend or a honeymoon for example, in the beautiful setting of the largest Dodecanese Island.

5 reasons to go to Rhodes

Climb the slopes of Mount Attavyros

At the lofty height of 1215 m, the island's highest point attracts those with restless legs after several hours lazing on the beach. Pleasure-seekers can enjoy a stop-off at Emponas, the wine capital of the island, before reaching the summit and the rare ruins of a sanctuary dedicated to Zeus.

Step into the shoes of a knight

Although the famous Colosseum was lost in the mists of time, Rhodes still offers a wealth of historic monuments. The Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes, a fortress built in the 14th century on the site of the ancient temple of the Sun God Helios, invites you on a journey back in time.

Bathe at Tsambika Beach to boost your fertility

Known for its tranquillity, Tsambika Beach is located off the beaten trail. Once you have enjoyed its crystal-clear turquoise waters, climb to the hilltop monastery to admire the beach from up high. Built in line with Greek monastic traditions, according to legend, the site grants the wishes of couples wanting to have children...

Take a walk through the White City

No visit to the largest of the Greek Dodecanese islands would be complete without a trip to Lindos, some 50 kilometres from Rhodes City. This white village, as traditional as it is bright, is overlooked by a magnificent acropolis, the crowning jewel of the site's archaeological ruins. Unforgettable!
