I’m planning a trip to Rhodes and will be spending a few days in Lindos. I’ve already got the main attractions on my list, like the Acropolis and the beautiful St. Paul’s Bay, but I’d love to discover some hidden gems that might not be on the typical tourist radar.

Are there any lesser-known spots or unique experiences in Lindos that you’d recommend? I’m particularly interested in charming local cafes, quiet beaches, secret viewpoints, or any special places where I can soak up the authentic atmosphere of the village. I’d also love tips on any hidden alleyways with beautiful architecture or local shops that sell unique souvenirs.

Additionally, if there are any specific local dishes or lesser-known tavernas that serve amazing food, I’m all ears! I’m excited to explore and appreciate any advice to make my Lindos visit extra special.
 
I loathe Lindos.Only been there once. Its overcrowded with tourists, Most off the cruise ships .tavernas /shops expensive .Example. bought a 3 litre bottle of Ouzo on a metal stand & with a tap . bought in Faliraki for 38.00 euros .a month later saw EXACTLY the same in supermarket on Krana in Lindos .Price 85.50 Euros .yes that is right eighty five euros & 50 cents .what a rip off
 
Lindos is full of hidden gems beyond the main attractions! For a quieter beach experience, check out Glystra Beach, a serene spot with crystal-clear waters. It’s perfect if you’re looking to avoid crowds. For stunning views, take a short hike to the top of the Tomb of Kleoboulos—an ancient monument with panoramic views of Lindos and the coastline, often missed by tourists.

Wandering through Lindos’ narrow alleyways is a must! You’ll find beautifully preserved traditional architecture, and charming local shops selling handcrafted ceramics and unique jewelry. Keep an eye out for small art galleries as well.

For a cozy meal, visit Dionysos Restaurant, a family-run taverna serving traditional dishes like moussaka and stifado. For a more off-the-beaten-path option, Arhontiko is a hidden gem tucked into a side street, offering authentic Ikarian dishes and a laid-back atmosphere.
 
the tavena on glystra beach got burned down last year in the fire . it was illegal anyway .no sun beds this year .the path to kleoboulos is strewn with litter .

moving to rhodes & problems

I was asked today by a british couple about moving post brexit. It is extremely difficult.first you have the 90 day rule meaning you have to leave after 3 months.So In that time , you have to either find a landlord willing to give a contract or purchase a property.To do the latter you must employ a greek lawyer & a greek accountant.then you can apply for a biometric residents card ( mine took 2 months & many visits to the greek police.you need the card to apply for a greek driving licence. ( you cannot drive long term on a UK licence ) . Once yoy reach 76 you cannot rent a car . Also need the card to apply for IKA book.that entitles you to health care.proof of address is required to get a phone line & broadband.you also need a contract or property deeds to get water & electric supply.a landlord may already have those & you will get the bills from them .
I am so gratefull I moved before Brexit.
