nights

A medieval settlement on the island of Rhodes, Lindos provides a mix of ancient history and modern attractions.Visiting Agathi Beach and Lindos beach will get you outdoors. Your inner history buff will appreciate Medieval City and Acropolis of Lindos. Change things up with these side-trips from Lindos: Palace of Grand Master of Knights (in Rhodes Town) and Anthony Quinn Bay (in Faliraki). There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at Tsambika Byzantine Museum and enjoy the sand and surf at St Pauls Bay.

The adventure continues: enjoy the sand and surf at Diakoftis Beach, stroll through Diakofti Beach, and indulge your taste buds at En Plo.
