On the Aegean's eastern, edge the Dodecanese present perfect Greek vistas of whitewashed walls, turquoise blue skies and seas. Island-hopping by ferry, hydrofoil or catamaran is a splendid way to get into the leisurely pace. Once docked, you'll find many of these twelve idyllic islands are easily explored on foot. Don't miss Rhodes' Acropolis, the ruins of ancient Kamiros and Valley of the Butterflies or Kos' Askepion ruins. Tiny Patmos is known for the cave of St. John of the Apocalypse.

Mount Dikeos is the tallest mountain on Kos at 846 metres high it is an imposing feature on the landscape. Our first venture on to the mountain was when we drove from Kardamena to the mountain towns of Pyli and Amaniou then finally arriving in Zipari. It was an experience driving along narrow mountain roads enjoying the rugged contours of the limestone and volcanic landscape of dramatic cliffs and valleys. Totally contrasting with the lush pine forestry and various other trees and bushes. Another day we drove to the picturesque mountain Town Zia Lagoudi, very popular to see the sunset from here. It was another opportunity for us to enjoy the scenery and explore the delightful town of Zia. We also drove to see the Asklepieion of Kos which is in located in the lower part of the mountain range. Our final encounter with Mount Dikeos was when we returned to visit Paleo Pyli (Castle) and Old Pyli more treasures of the mountain. While driving from Kefalos to Kos Mount Dikeos is a visible companion for a good bit of the journey.

The beach is a few kilometres along the coast from the Blue Lagoon resort, where we were staying, and well worth the walk from there. There’s a carpark above it, and it should be easy to reach by car. The sand is soft and the water translucent. Loungers and umbrellas are available for hire, but we didn’t bother. Further out into the water, there are flat rocks like those lining much of the coast in this area, but they aren’t a problem. This is a nudist beach. I’m not into nude sunbathing (too pale to tan!), but it’s the best way to swim.

Must be the best stretch of beach on the island. Nice drive down off the main road and lots of parking adjacent to the beach. Lots of facilities, toilets, beach bars, shops. Lovely naturist section at the end for a safe natural swim, 3 or 4 lovely taverna's at the top of the hill for lunch or dinner. A must place to visit if you are on the island travelling around

We first saw the unique Bay from the Acropolis of Lindos. Driving down to it we passed a fine Soccer Field, had free parking and an easy walk down to the beach with rentable Cabanas. The Bay is beautiful, water is clear. You can see the rim of the Acropolis and out through a narrow opening to the Aegean. Historically, there is a Chapel commemorating the visit of Saint Paul on his 3rd. Missionary Journey.

Enjoy the feeling of being close to animals as never before. Ostriches and other animals wait for you to come and show them your love.

We hired a quad bike for several days and we made several visits to feed the cats and peacocks as we are animal lovers. The cats go crazy for meat and tinned food. We gave the peacocks a variety of watermelon, tomatoes, tinned sweet corn, and bird seed. They also really enjoyed the dry cat food. The forest isn’t difficult to find- it is just behind Kos airport and the clearing where the animals gather is fairly easily accessible via transport- probably not easy to get to if walking though.

I was staying at at the Atalanti Hotel outside Falaraki. It was a pleasant twenty minute walk to this lovely little cove every day. Although I am a qualified diver I had not even brought a snorkel with me but I could play around the rocks every day watching fish. Lovely cove. The vendors for the sun loungers were friendly the beach bar served lovely food even if it was very expensive

There are several beaches around Lindos so this review just covers the sandy beach bay where the tourist boats land. Excellent sandy beach with plenty of sunbeds and parasols to hire. At the back of the beach are several restaurants and bars. Ideal for people watching. From this beach east uphill access to Lindos old town which is a must visit. The whole area is very attractive.
