In a few hours a month of rain fell on Rhodes. Caused a lot of damage all over the island. Weather reports were sent to mobile phones. Today traffic movement is prohibited
 
Just got back from the beach road in afandou .A very large part has been washed away .It is near Sundalia. too dark to see if the ducks are ok .
 
A bridge has collapsed in Faliraki .On Kallithea avenue next to the Mexican taverna & Sofia travel shop. Traffic will be using the main Lindos To Rhodes town road to access parts of Faliraki instead .
 
the ducks have been joined by moorhens & a grey heron . work is going on to replace the bridge in faliraki.
 
the heron has gone. now about 30 ducks .bridge works going on in faliraki .in ialyssos roads being repaired from today & re tarmaced
 
today 11 december bridge repaired in faliraki so traffic can now go through faliraki without taking the diversion

What Part of Rhodes Feels Most “Local”?

I might be visiting friends in Rhodes this summer, and I’m trying to figure out which parts of the island feel the most local and authentic versus heavily touristy.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll definitely check out the major spots and beaches, but I usually enjoy the places where you can actually slow down a little, grab a coffee, sit at a taverna, and get more of a feel for everyday life on the island.

My friends have mentioned that Rhodes has very different vibes depending on where you are, especially once you get away from the main tourist areas.

So I’m curious what people here would recommend. Are there any places that really capture the atmosphere of the island beyond the typical tourist experience?

What do you love most about Rhodes?

I’ve been reading about Rhodes lately, and the more I learn, the more it seems like a place that offers a little bit of everything. The island has such an interesting mix of history, beaches, beautiful villages, and great food. The Old Town alone looks incredible, with its medieval streets, stone buildings, and all that history around every corner.

At the same time, people talk a lot about the beaches, the clear water, and places like Lindos with its white houses and views of the acropolis. It seems like Rhodes manages to balance culture, scenery, and relaxation really well.

For those of you who have visited, what stands out the most when you think back on your trip? Was it a specific place, like a beach or village, or more the overall atmosphere of the island?

I’d love to hear what made Rhodes special for you and what left the biggest impression.

How do I start using a manual concrete mixer efficiently for DIY projects?

Picked up a manual concrete mixer for some weekend DIY stuff, but wow, I'm realizing I have no clue if I'm using it in a smart way or just wasting energy. I figured it would be simple, but the mix keeps coming out lumpy or too soupy, and I'm starting to feel like the weak link here is... me. If anyone has tips on getting a smooth mix, pacing myself, or just not making a giant mess every time, I'd love to hear it. I really want to get better at this before I start my patio project.
