FALIRAKI BEACH
One of Rhodes’ busiest beaches, Faliraki Beach is well-liked for a good cause. The beach provides soft golden sand, clear waters, and a length of more than 5 kilometers. Families will love the shore’s amenities, which include beach bars, water sports facilities, sun loungers, and umbrellas. Faliraki Beach is the biggest water park in Greece. It is a great location for a refreshing break on a sunny day in the summer.
LINDOS BEACH
On Rhodes’ eastern shore, in the town of Lindos, is the stunning Lindos Beach. The shoreline has a distinctive and picturesque charm because it is surrounded by gorgeous white-washed buildings and an acropolis on a hill. Despite the beach’s tiny size, the swimming-friendly waters are crystal clear. Along with water sports amenities and beachside cafes, there are a ton of beach loungers as well as umbrellas for rent.
TSAMBIKA BEACH
Between the small towns of Kolymbia and Archangelos, on Rhodes’ eastern shore, is the breathtaking beach known as Tsambika Beach. The beach is encircled by scenic hills and woods and is popular for its smooth golden sand and clear waters. You can enjoy the relaxing atmosphere on one of the available sun loungers as the beach is great for swimming, and sunbathing. The shore is also home to plenty of beachside tavernas where guests enjoy fresh seafood and traditional Greek fare.
ANTHONY QUINN BAY
Near the town of Faliraki, on Rhodes’ eastern shore, is a lovely cove called Anthony Quinn Bay. The popular actor who appeared in the Rhodes-shot film “The Guns of Navarone” is honored by having the beach bear his name. The waters are crystal clear and ideal for snorkeling and swimming despite the tiny beach’s size. The beach has a distinct and secluded charm due to the imposing cliffs and forest of pines that encircle it. This beach is the definition of a private beach that can offer you never-ending sessions of relaxation, swimming in the refreshingly cold waters, and probably a nice beautiful tan.
AGATHI BEACH
Up till a few years ago, Agathi Beach was one of Rhodes’ best-kept secrets. It can be found on the east shore, 38 kilometers from Rhodes, and close to the Haraki resort. Turn left on the road that leads from the intersection to Haraki, towards the hill that houses the towering figure of Feraklos Castle, to reach the shore.
The major attraction here is the pure golden sand. The beach is relatively small and gets crowded, and the sea is exceptionally clear but at times it can get a bit windy with a fair amount of big waves. There are a few small tavernas where you can get delicious meals, lounge chairs, and umbrellas for rent.
PRASONISI BEACH
Unquestionably one of the most remarkable beaches on the island, if not all of Greece, is Prasonisi Beach. A broad sandy beach gradually gets narrower as it gets closer to the island’s tip, creating two sandy coves that, based on the weather and the water level, lead to a different small island that can be reached on foot or by swimming. Surfers will find this to be a paradise, particularly in the summer months. Wetsuits and surfboards are available for rental. However, if you choose to swim across, continue with extra caution as you might be exposed to sea currents.
KALLITHEA BEACH
On the eastern shore of Rhodes, 2 kilometers off the bustling resort of Faliraki, Kallithea is set against a backdrop of breathtaking beaches and internationally renowned spa baths. Kallithea is a comparatively quiet city, but it still provides visitors with an extensive choice of entertainment options. There is something for the whole family at the beaches, bays, coves, and caves where many residents enjoy gathering.
There are cafes, canteens, eateries, and umbrellas available at the well-kept beaches. All children can spend countless hours exploring the small inlets and coves with their sculpted rocks and caves, and for the more daring, daily scuba diving trips can be organized.
