| The bay of Faliraki is one of the most
important vacations spots on the island of Rhodes. It is situated on the east coast, just
16km from the center of the city. The sandy, kilometers-long beach with water sports
facilities in combination with the intense nightlife, attracts mostly young people from
all around Europe. Ideal place for hot summer days + nights!
Places to visit:
- The Acropolis of Erimokastro,
which belongs to the Mycenean period (1500-1100 BC).
- The three small monasteries,
just outside the village of Kalithies, with old Orthodox Icons and interesting
architecture.
The picturesque streets of
Kalithies village.
Recent excavations revealed that in the local
cave of Kalamonia lived the most ancient man on the island (4000 BC). In another nearing
cave, elephant bones were found.
