Rhodes is the largest city on the island of the same name and is one of the most touristy places on the island thanks to its huge UNESCO-listed historic centre, beaches and harbours.

Rhodes Town is a popular destination for day trips from the seaside resorts, but also a great starting point for travel if you're heading to Rhodes primarily for sightseeing and not just for a dip in the sea.

Thanks to its beautiful beaches, even the town of Rhodes itself can serve as a resort for a seaside holiday.
