Things to Do in Rhodes

Best Areas and Highlights in Rhodes

Rhodes Old Town

The Old Town is the island's historic heart and one of its most memorable features. Its walls, streets, architecture, and atmosphere give Rhodes a distinct identity that immediately separates it from many other Greek islands.

Rhodes Town

Outside the old medieval core, Rhodes Town offers a broader urban base with restaurants, services, coastal access, and a practical center for travelers who want convenience and activity.

Lindos

Lindos is one of the island's major highlights, known for its whitewashed appearance, dramatic setting, and famous acropolis. It gives Rhodes one of its strongest visual contrasts.

The east coast

This side of the island is often associated with many of the best-known holiday areas, easier beach access, and a more resort-friendly atmosphere.

The wider island

Rhodes is large enough that it should not be thought of only as a town-and-beach destination. Regional drives, smaller villages, and different coastal areas all add to the experience.
