Restaurants in the old city
by Aggeliki
In the old city there are some of the most nice restaurants of Rhodes, (some of them has been rated as the best resaturants of Greece). In a medieval and romantic atmosphere, they offer local and traditional specialities and very good seafood and dishes of greek cuisine.
Light but protective clothing is a must!
by Evenith666
There are hundreds of tourist shops selling amazing trinkets, so make sure you have some room in your baggage. Also, a good back-pack or shoulder bag is ideal for taking your belongings with you to go exploring. If you are going in the summer months it can get extremely hot, so light coloured, loose fitting clothing is a must. Make sure you take a hat with you, preferably a fully brimmed hat rather than a baseball cap.
In the winter months the rain can get horrendous, but it is still usually very warm, so light rain coats are highly recomended. Sun cream is a must for the summer months. Mosquito repellent and bite treatment cream is also necessery. If you venture off the main roads, as you will undoubtadly do here, either make sure your legs are fully covered or bring plasters and antiseptic wipes incase your legs get scratched by the dry twigs and roots that stick up out of the ground. There are some amazing views here, and to not bring a camera would be a disaster Some swimming in the sea is a must-do here, so bring swimming clothes, beach towels and any snorkeling equipment you have.
lonesome beach
by subculture-hero
Long lonesome beaches you can find at the east coast of Rhodes. Between the villages lindos and archangelos there are calm places where you can go swim. Near faliraki the peace is gone. Faliraki and kallithea are very popular by young german and especially English. If you want get drunk, that’s the place to go.
Hiring a car
by wyagi6
If you're not on a budget, then the best way to explore Rhodes is by hiring a small car. Coach tours are expensive and you don't get to spend enough time in the places you really like. If you just want to get around the island and see / visit the main sights, a small car is adequate, however to fully explore the island, you'll need to hire a car with 4-wheel drive. This is because many of the roads - especially those to the interior of the island are not covered with tarmac and are no more than dirt tracks. We hired from Avis and they gave us a map showing which roads were suitable for our type of car. If you go off road in an ordinary car you will be charged extra money for any damage you pick up and the cleaning of the car. Most hire car firms have cheap and cheerful mini sized cars, which are ideal for most people.
