Airport to Lindos

Hi all, I’m not a big poster so I hope I’ve done this right. I’m arriving into Rhodes Airport at 7pm on May 27th. Spontaneous trip and will be a long travel day, does anyone know which exact buses I need to get and from where, to avoid an expensive taxi?

I’ve been trying the Ktel website but it’s not showing any available times or seats for any routes. Are they sold out or must I pay in person? I’d appreciate any help. Thank you! :)

Hello everyone, planning a trip to Rhodes in September, how does my itinerary look?

So we are thinking of going from the 8-17th September. We will be going to the island of Rhodes for the trip.

8th - 10th: Lindos
-St Paul’s bay
-Arcopolis

10th - 13th: Kolymbia
- More chill
- visit beaches + maybe take a boat out

13th - 17th: Rhodes Town
- Old town
- more beaches
- day trip to symi island

This is just a very rough itinerary but would like to get people’s thoughts before booking accomodation. Please feel free to suggest things to do in these places or if we should do more/less in one place or another.

Also, may think about renting a car. It’s a possibility but if the above is doable by bus we’d probably do that to save some money!

"LINDOS" or "LIDOS" olive oil?

Hi everyone,

I was in Rhodes some time ago and bought some fantastic olive oil from a small local roadside shop north of Lindos. The place was next to Savvas Ceramics and was called Olive Oil Lindos Premium.

The oil is excellent, but I have now noticed something that made me very curious.

Some of the olive oil, sold in tins, is branded “Lidos Premium**”, while a small gift bottle we received is branded “Lindos Premium”**. Both refer to the same bottler, Rodian (although only one - the smaller gift bottle - mentions production from the Savvas family olive grove). Both have an identical logo and typeface.

I am genuinely curious: does anyone know where this difference comes from? Is it just a naming variation, a typo, a different product line - or is someone copying someone else? And if so, who is copying whom? :)

Many thanks in advance - and to those of you who live on Rhodes, I hope to see you there again :)

Lindos Food Recommendations

Will be going to Lindos in a couple of weeks time.

Need food recommendations for lunch/dinner.

I can look all over Google maps at the reviews but they just show the most popular.

Please can someone point me in the direction of a truly fantastic food spot.

TIA

Sunbeds Elli Beach

Anyone visiting Rhodes now who can report on the prices for sunbeds in Elli Beach?
The sunbeds not connected to a Club or restaurant like Ronda etc.

We visited last September, and we got 2 beds for 20 Euros. Probably because it was end season. I’ve read articles about local disputes between government and the owners of beach spots, but I couldn’t figure out if it was Greece in general or specific places.

Changes in r/Rhodes

Καλώς ήρθατε στο r/Rhodes!

We are the new mod team of r/Rhodes since a few weeks back. We have been spending the last couple of weeks going through the moderation queue, planning out our vision for the subreddit and getting our bearings with the community. In this post, we would like to introduce ourselves and tell you a bit more about the changes that have come with us taking over as moderators.

Rules
As you can see in the sidebar, we have implemented 7 new rules for the subreddit. Because of these rules, it is no longer permitted to discuss drugs nor is it allowed to make posts looking for sexual encounters in the subreddit, which have both been reoccurring previously.

We have chosen to do this to keep our community safe and also clean the feed from posts that do not relate to Rhodes itself nor living in or travelling to Rhodes. We ask that you please respect these new rules and instead take such discussions in other subreddits.

We would gladly hear your feedback in regards to these rules and look to implement what you as the community would like to see in terms of rules and moderation!

Flairs
You can now choose between a couple of initial user flairs. If you would like any more, please let us know and we can add them! Post flairs are coming soon as well.

FAQ
We are looking into building an FAQ to be able to refer frequent questions to whenever they are asked. What would you like the FAQ to contain, and do you have good answers to common questions about Rhodes? Please let us know below!

Who’s going to Rhodes this summer?

We’re going to be there at the end of June and we’re getting pretty excited. Last time we were there, 5-6 years ago, we stayed in an all-inclusive in the north/north west side of the island. It was a pretty good experience, but most days it was windy and the sea was wavy on that side of the island.

This year we booked a boutique hotel between the town of Rhodes and Faliraki. We’re also renting a car so we’ll be driving around quite a bit and will experience more beaches and small towns. We’re also considering a day trip to Symi, weather permitting. Looking forward to visiting Rhodes again!

Looking for solo travel recommendations

Hi everyone,

I’m planning a solo trip to Rhodes for around 6–7 days this summer and would love some advice from locals or people who’ve visited before.

My main goals are:

- scuba diving

- exploring beaches and nature

- hiking

- meeting other travelers/people

I’m not planning to rent a car, so I’m trying to figure out the best area to stay as a solo traveler. I’ll probably spend most of the day outside exploring, swimming, diving, or walking around, so I don’t need a fancy hotel just something comfortable, social, and well connected.

Which area would you recommend staying in without a car? Rhodes Town? Faliraki? Somewhere else?

I’d also really appreciate:

- scuba diving recommendations

- good hiking spots or nature areas

- beach recommendations

- ideas for day trips without a car

- tips for meeting people / social hostels / bars / activities for solo travelers

Any suggested itineraries for 6–7 days would also be amazing.

Thanks :)
