Many folks recommend choosing the road less travelled in search of unspoiled wonders and hidden getaways. Such is not the case with the Island of Rhodes (pun definitely intended), a Greek island that has played host to an incredible array of visitors throughout time. Like the other 12 Dodecanese Islands in the Aegean Sea, Rhodes is home to ancient ruins, architecture that spans the Hellenistic, Ottoman, Byzantine and Italian periods, crystal-clear beaches and stunning natural scenery. Travellers embracing a Rhodes holiday can switch up their time between exploring the largest and best-preserved fortified city in Europe with a trip to Rhodes Old Town before embracing the spoils of nature with a swim in Anthony Quinn Bay. Adrenaline-seekers can make a splash with water sports around the island and finish the day with a bite and beverage at the local Taverna.
