Is October a Good Time to Visit Rhodes?

I’m considering a trip to Rhodes this October because I found a really good deal on flights, and now I’m trying to decide if I should go for it!

I’ve been looking into the weather, but I’d love to hear from people who have actually visited Rhodes in October. Is it still warm enough to spend time at the beach and swim, or does the weather start becoming unpredictable by then? I don’t necessarily need extremely hot weather, but I would like some sunshine and nice days for exploring.

I’m also wondering what Rhodes is like that time of year in terms of restaurants, shops, attractions, and crowds. Are most things still open, especially in Rhodes Town and Lindos?

Would you recommend visiting Rhodes in October, or is it better to save the trip for earlier in the season?

Is Lindos better as a day trip or overnight stay?

Planning a trip to Rhodes and trying to decide how to experience Lindos. I’ve seen people recommend both a quick day trip and staying overnight, and I’m curious what others think.

On one hand, Lindos seems compact enough to see in a few hours, like to see the Acropolis, village streets, a swim, lunch, then move on. On the other, photos of the village in the early morning or after day-trippers leave make it look like a completely different place.

For those who’ve been, did staying overnight add something meaningful to your experience? Was it quieter, more atmospheric, or easier to enjoy the town without crowds? Or did you feel a day trip was more than enough?

I’d love to hear what you’d recommend, especially if you’ve done both. Season, budget, and travel style probably change the answer for everyone.

What Happened to the Colossus of Rhodes?

I’ve been reading about Colossus of Rhodes and realized I don’t actually know what happened to it. I know it was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and that it stood somewhere near the harbor in Rhodes, but beyond that, the details are a bit fuzzy for me.

Did it collapse because of an earthquake? And if so, what happened to the remains afterward? I’ve heard different versions—some say it stayed in pieces for a long time, others say it was eventually removed or sold off.

Also, is there any real evidence of exactly where it stood, or is that still debated? Curious to hear what people know or have learned, especially if you’ve visited Rhodes and seen any related sites or history in person.
