Things To Do
Lindos Old Town
Lindos Old Town is filled with shops, cafés, and traditional streets to explore.
Lindos Acropolis
Near the wedding reception and venue, this ancient site includes the Doric Temple of Athena Lindia (4th century BC), a Hellenistic stoa, and medieval fortifications. The views over the Aegean Sea and St. Paul’s Bay are breathtaking. The climb is steep but worth it and the donkeys are also available to assist.
Castle of Rhodes- Old Town
A must-see! Built by the Knights of St. John in the 14th century, it features cobblestone streets, Gothic architecture, Ottoman mosques, and charming squares. You can wander its narrow alleyways, browse the shops, and enjoy cafes and restaurants.
Archaeological Museum of Rhodes
Located in the castle in Old Town, this museum showcases artifacts from prehistoric to Hellenistic times. Highlights include the statue of Aphrodite Bathing, ancient pottery, and intricate mosaics.
Kallithea Springs and Beach
This is one of our favorite places to visit in Rhodes. Kalithea Springs has been beautifully restored with mosaic floors, domed pavilions, and manicured gardens. There is a bay area with beach chairs, music, and a beautiful outdoor restaurant.
Mandraki Marina & “New Town”
Walk the scenic promenade. Minutes away from many shops, local and brand-name. Or take a day trip to another island, the Mandraki Harbor serves as a departure hub for boats heading to nearby islands like Symi or Halki, go to secluded coves, or coastal cruises. Ideal for sea adventures or snorkeling trips.
Valley of the Butterflies
Take a day trip to both the Valley of Butterflies and Seven Springs. A peaceful, shaded gorge where thousands of Jersey Tiger butterflies gather each summer to reproduce. Wooden bridges and streams lead through the valley, offering a cool, hiking experience.
Seven Springs (Epta Piges)
Near Valley of the Butterflies, Seven Springs is also a serene hiking opportunity. Home to seven bubbling springs that flow into a man-made lake. You can walk through a narrow, dark tunnel or hike through the surrounding pine forest.
Filerimos Mountain
Visit the peaceful hilltop with ruins of ancient Ialysos, a Byzantine monastery, and the iconic giant Cross, and peacocks roaming around the grounds.
Agathi Beach (Melina's Pick)
A soft golden sand beach with shallow, warm water. Note: There are no beach bars, restaurants, or umbrella chair services here.
Afandou Beach (Eric's Pick)
A pebbly, coarse sand beach. Very long beach with the best of both worlds- one side is quiet, and the other offers a low-key beach bar restaurant, "Vammos".
Elli Beach
A lively, pebbly sand beach that features a DJ and an 8-meter diving platform deep in the sea. In the evening, it transforms into a nightclub atmosphere. Parking lot walkable from "Mondraiki" in New Town
Faliraki Beach
A soft sand beach that is touristy and lively. Tip: Choose the south end if you want a quieter experience.
Tsambika Beach
A sandy, busy beach with water sports and other activities, bars, and tavernas.
