Holiday in Faliraki

What makes Faliraki special as a destination?

Faliraki is the most popular beach resort on Rhodes, combining one of the longest and most beautiful sandy beaches in the Dodecanese Islands with a vibrant nightlife and top-notch tourist infrastructure. Located on the east coast of Rhodes, just 14 kilometers south of the island's capital, it has transformed from a small fishing village into the most visited resort on the island, offering something for every type of holidaymaker - from family-friendly beach idylls to lively party nights. The main beach of Faliraki stretches over five kilometers of golden sand and gently slopes into the crystal-clear water - ideal for families with small children. The beach is well-organized with sun loungers, umbrellas, water sports rentals, and numerous beach bars that are open from early to late. South of the main beach lies Anthony Quinn Bay, one of the most photogenic coves in the Mediterranean: framed by rocky cliffs, with emerald green water, named after the actor who fell in love with the bay while filming The Guns of Navarone. The Faliraki Waterpark is the largest water park in Greece and an absolute highlight for families. With over 20 slides, a wave pool, a lazy river, and special children's areas, it offers a whole day of fun and cooling off. For adults, the nightlife beckons: Bar Street transforms into a bustling party mile after dark, featuring international DJs, cocktail bars, and clubs. Faliraki is also an ideal starting point for excursions: Rhodes Town with its medieval old town is reachable in 20 minutes, Lindos in 40 minutes, and the Kallithea Springs offer a unique bathing experience in a historic Art Deco facility right by the sea. The season in Faliraki runs from April to November, with Rhodes being one of the sunniest islands in Europe, boasting over 300 sunny days a year. Rhodes Airport is just 15 minutes away.
