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.

Surrounded by medieval walls, this old part of Rhodes is the location of many interesting attractions of historical significance.
Excellent town and lots to do and see Also plenty of shops and bars and places to eat Great old town well worth getting off main streets and exploring Back streets where things seemed cheaper

Wow, such a spectacle from when you 1st see the castle walls on the approach be it land or sea. You need good shoes to negotiate the steep hill side and narrow streets, and there are many paths up to the acropolis. A short Que and 12 euro and you enter the walls. more steep steps and uneven ground all the way to the top. Lots of information boards to explain the huge history of the place, fantastic wonderment of how they built and lived in this amazing fort and then the views OMG Take your time on the walk up (and down) lazily wander around the ruins and soak up the drama. Fantastic.

Just love the short climb up to the castle and to breath the fresh air here. The most spectacular views over the Aegean can e seen towards Symi. The small cafe has excellent Thyme honey on offer after the harvest and is one of the best honey's we have ever purchased.

This is totally undersold, an easy-ish climb from the parking (coffee shop nearby for after!) and the views were exceptional. You can walk around and into the small church at the top, and also light a candle (donations can be left there too). There is no entrance fee, but should be!

Hospital of the Knights of St. John (Nossokomío lpotón) is one of the most interesting buildings of the old town and one of the jewels of Rhodes .Situated in the heart of the Medieval Town, Rhodes, next to the famous Street of the Knights, the Archaeological Museum of Rhodes (Hospital of the Knights) is a must visit attraction. Not only can you see a host of archaeological treasures and a real sense of 'the old Rhodes' but it offers plenty of shaded areas, perfect if you are visiting at a hotter time of year.

In the centre of Kos town you will find this very attractive square. Great place to have a coffee and people watch. Small market for gifts next to the church, which is a worth a visit.

Largely rebuilt by the Italians this is a very beautiful building - lovely views from the windown and lots and lots of interesting stuff for history buffs - beautiful mosaic floors nicked from Kos. You do get a feel for how the palace was during the crusades.

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
