Owner Location Comment
This is a beautiful area in the south of Rhodes island. This part of Rhodes is suited for visitors of all ages and the bustling yet laid-back resort of Pefkos has retained its beauty and peaceful atmosphere. The beaches are strung out along the edge of the resort and vary in terms of shallowness,privacy and expanse but all are easily accessible and offer crystal clear water,including fish,sparking clean sands and the feeling of swimming in a warm bath.
Pefkos is especially attractive in being surrounded by pine forests and some mountainous backdrops offering dramatic views.The light here is magical and you feel that you can see every rock and every tree on top of these hills. This is a very relaxing place to visit and swim, sunbathe try some water sports down at the beach or just soak up the atmosphere in one of the many fantastic beach tavernas offering menus to suit all tastes. Why not try a trip in the glass bottom boats that travel along the coast from Pefkos to Lindos-a great experience and offering a different perspective of the resort.
Pefkos is very close to Lindos-a must for visitors with its white sugar cube house tumbling down the hillsides underneath the Acropolis.St Paul's Bay is a wonderful place for a swim,a beautiful cove with clear shallow water surrounded by cliffs and overlooked by a tiny white chapel.
Lindos main beach is exceptional ,it stretches out for what seems miles as a shallow bay-and the water is clear and warm. This beach is overlooked by the Acropolis so you can enjoy your swim or sunbathe whilst gazing up at the temple of Athena on the summit.
Pefkos is a fantastic destination for the Rhodes visitor-it has everything,the scenery, the facilities of a modern resort, the night life the restaurants and bars and it's no wonder that people come back again and again,sometimes for over 20 years- and it hasn't lost it's initial appeal and I should know ,I've been coming here since 1989- come and see what you're missing!
