It might surprise the reader that in my first job in good ol'London town after leaving school in a package Holiday company Rhodes was a thriving winter destination together with Crete and Corfu and Epirotiki Lines were cruising around the Greek islands in the 70s....It always had been an alternative to cold weather conditions in winter months....the same as Spanish Islands..... Kalley Mera from Thailand and Monsoons raining heavily here!

That news report states 20 hotels with 5,000 beds will remain open.That is a very small number. There are some all inclusive hotels on rhodes with over 600 beds in each hotel.It may surprise you to know there are restaurants open in Rhodes all year. Rhodes residents like to eat in restaurants.

Advice for hiking in Rhodes

I'm planning a trip to Rhodes and am really excited about exploring the island on foot. I’m looking for advice on the best hiking trails.

Can anyone recommend must-see routes that showcase the island's natural beauty and historical sites? I'm particularly interested in trails with stunning views, as well as any that might lead to hidden gems or lesser-known spots. Also, are there any safety tips or specific gear I should bring along? Lastly, I'd love to hear about any guided hiking tours that are worth joining.

Any personal experiences or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
