RODOS
Rhodes, the largest of the Dodecanese islands, is not
an ordinary
holiday resort but a cosmopolitan place of international reputation. Indeed,
this relatively limited space, endowed with innumerable natural beauties,
is rightly considered a tourists' Paradise. Holidays here are not restricted
to the three summer months, as the sunny period lasts much longer. In Rhodes
everyone can choose their preferred type of holiday - the intensity of
an excellently equipped major resort or the peace and quiet of a small,
traditional sea-side or mountain village. Swimming in the crystal-clear
waters of Rhodes is equally fascinating on populous beaches or on isolated
pebbled sea-shores. Lovers of history will be drawn to the remarkable monuments
all over the island, signs of its long past. Those who prefer mobility
will find an adequate network of roads enabling them to reach almost every
corner of the island. Daily air and sea communications with other islands,
numerous tourist agencies open limitless horizons to the traveler. By its
present reality, Rhodes would resemble a rose (rhodon in Greek) rather
than the mythical nymph after whom the island was allegedly named.
