Kokkini

Kokkini is a small beach on the east coast of Rhodes. It's just 70m wide and has sand under foot. There's rocks blocking the entrance to the water so you either need to climb over those or use the stairs to get to the water.

Kallithea

Kallithea is a V shaped bay on the east coast of Rhodes. It's privately managed with an entrance fee to get in. There's a small shingle beach and loungers in a raised area on either side. There's no water sports but a trendy vibe makes it very popular.

Anthony Quinn Bay

Anthony Quinn Bay is a small rocky beach on the east coast of Rhodes it's covered in stones rather than sand so it's not ideal for youngsters, particularly as it gets deep fairly quickly and it's pretty much always busy meaning there's not much space to play.

Fanes

Fanes is a small village close to the west coast of Rhodes, it's not a popular tourist destination with minimal facilities and hotel options but as the village was painted in bright colours back in 2010 it's a unique and charming place to visit.

Lindos

Lindos is a gorgeous village midway down the south east coast of Rhodes. It's a maze of narrow cobbled streets and shops selling locally produced goods like lace and embroidery. Plus, there's the incredible acropolis of Lindos on the mountain above the village.

Rhodes Town
