Rhodes, The Island of the Sun

Rhodes lies 270 nautical miles from Piraeus and is surrounded by the islands of Simi, Tilos, Chalki and Alimia as well as rocky outcroppings like Tragoussa, Drossonissi, Prassonissi and others. It has an area of 1,400 sq. km. and a coastline length of 220 km. The land is by and large mountainous -the highest mountain is Attaviros with 1,215m. height-, with small plains, verdant ravines and river beds, valleys and plateaus and long sandy beaches.

Island of Rhodes has always been a major attraction for tourists from every corner of the world. Whether you like, nature, night life, Culture, History (Rhodes is where Colossus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient world once stood) or if you just want to get-away from it all for a while, and get a bronze-like tan, Rhodes island has it all.

The continual sunshine -an average 300 days of sunshine a year- and the mild climate make the island suitable for viticulture. Its superb climate, the fertile soil and the geographical position are the main factors which have made the island densely populated from antiquity up to the present. Its population today is around 90,000 and they are able to host more than 1,250,000 visitors a year.

Visitors who come to enjoy the island's natural beauty and to get acquainted with its long history. The airport of Rhodes has daily charter flights from many European cities as well as Cyprus, Tel Aviv and Cairo.

You can also reach Rhodes by plane from Athens (about 50 minutes flight), Crete and Santorini. Large ferry boats go daily between Piraeus and Rhodes (the trip lasts from 13 to 20 hours), while there connections with Thessalonica, Crete, the rest of the Dodecanese and international ports as Limassol (Cyprus), Haifa (Israel), Alexandria (Egypt) and Ancona (Italy). Hotels of all categories can be found in Rhodes, with rooms or suites, pensions, and rooms to rent in private houses. Travel Agencies in Rhodes Island can provide you with everything you may need either for your accommodation or exploring the island.

Welcome to the brilliant island of the sun!...

@jadaswarklar Yeah, I've been to Santorini last year, Parkour paradise :D

But anyway thank you ;)

May I ask, are you a traceur yourself?

[jadaswarklar]

@ezkiller93

The best place for Parkour in Greece is the island of Santorini. Go check "parkour santorini" on youtube... It is quite unique to do parkour there...

As for Rhodes I do not know, but I think you can find something...

[DemonicWeapons]

Apparently the roads in Rhodes are really good fun, great for a little bit of hire car rallying?! :D

@CcCTuranismCcC The Italians and Venetians had Rhodos for much longer. That's why some of their words are Italian, and Rhodians speak with a funny accent..like they are singing

I'm going to Rhodes next summer, but I gotta ask is there any places for Parkour? Because I'm a traceur, and I'm not such a big fan of "swimming" and relaxing.. Thanks in advance.
