Round Rhodes Tour

The title of the blog tells you what we've been up to today. We hired a car, and drove clockwise round the island. So we passed the (in)famous Faliraki and Lindos early on in our trip.


The ambience improved as we reached the South of the island, helped by a wonderful fish lunch at the beachside taverna at Plimiri.


The scenery was amazing with mile upon mile of wild flowers and grasses with nobody in sight.

We dropped down to Prasonisi, which was disappointingly shabby, so pressed on round to the West coast which delighted us even more. Pine forests, mountain views and lush scenery all the way from before Monolithos round to Kamiros. This was the Rhodes that does not appear in holiday brochures!

Miraculously managed to navigate our way back to the hotel and find a parking space very near before drinking beer. Went for meal at Napoleon's before coming back to the Plaza, where we met Neil from Symi and his brother James. More time disappeared so that I am very late with today's blog...
