Tsambika Beach
A broad stretch of golden sand with shallow turquoise waters — the most family-friendly beach on the east coast. Pair it with a short hike up to Tsambika Monastery for one of the best panoramic views in Rhodes.
St. Paul's Bay
An almost enclosed, heart-shaped bay right beneath the Acropolis of Lindos. Crystal-clear water, calm shallows and a tiny white chapel make it the most photographed cove on the island.
Anthony Quinn Bay
A stunning emerald-coloured cove framed by jagged volcanic rocks. Famous for its cinematic beauty (and the actor it's named after), it's the island's go-to spot for clear-water snorkeling.
Traganou Beach
A peaceful east-coast beach known for crystal-clear waters and dramatic sea caves carved into the cliffs. Ideal for swimming, snorkeling and an afternoon away from the crowds.
Agathi (Golden) Beach
Soft golden sand, calm shallow water and a handful of small tavernas just behind the dunes. A quiet, laid-back alternative to its busier neighbour Tsambika.
Prasonisi
A world-class windsurfing and kitesurfing spot at the southern tip of the island, where two seas meet over a thin strip of sand. Wild, windswept and spectacular.
Elli Beach
The cosmopolitan main beach of Rhodes Town, with beach bars, a high diving platform and lively atmosphere right next to the medieval walls. Perfect for a quick swim between sightseeing.
Pefkos Beach
A calm, golden-sand bay just south of Lindos. Quieter than its famous neighbour but only minutes away — ideal for couples and travellers looking to slow down.
Kiotari Main Beach
A long, organized stretch of crystal-clear water and fine pebbles, with high-end seaside amenities, sunbeds and beach restaurants. A perfect full-day base on the southeast coast.
Red Sand Beach
A unique coastal landscape of reddish sand and clear water, accessible only by boat. Striking, photogenic and refreshingly empty — the wild side of the Rhodes coastline.
