Hidden gems in Rhodes

Places most visitors miss, many of them free.

Agios Pavlos Beach (St. Paul's Bay - South)

A small, stunning, and often overlooked pebble beach on the south of the island, near the village of Gennadi, with incredibly clear water and a backdrop of cliffs.

Farma of Rhodes Petting Zoo

A wonderful, ethical interactive farm in the village of Pastida where you can feed and pet a huge variety of animals, from kangaroos and lemurs to deer and local farm animals.

Kahal Shalom Synagogue & Jewish Museum

The oldest synagogue in Greece, located in the Jewish Quarter of Rhodes Old Town, with an adjacent museum detailing the rich, tragic history of the Rhodian Jewish community.

Profitis Ilias Mountain

The island's second-highest peak, home to two unique, abandoned Italian-era luxury hotels (Elafos and Elafina) built to resemble Alpine lodges, set among pine forests.

Stegna Village

A traditional, sleepy fishing village on the east coast, just north of Lindos, with a long, sandy beach lined with excellent, family-run fish tavernas.

Day trips from Rhodes

Symi Island

1-1.5 hours by ferry from Rhodes Town

A stunning, colorful neoclassical paradise. The main port of Gialos is famous for its tiered, pastel-hued houses climbing the hillside, creating one of the most photographed scenes in Greece.

Butterfly Valley (Petaloudes)

30 min by car southwest of Rhodes Town

A unique and lush natural park where thousands of Jersey Tiger moths gather in summer. Wooden walkways lead through a cool, shaded valley with little waterfalls and pools.

Ancient Kamiros & West Coast

45 min by car southwest of Rhodes Town

Explore the remarkably well-preserved ruins of ancient Kamiros, a Doric city with an impressive water system, then discover the rugged, less-touristed west coast with its castles and villages.
