Beaches

Quiet beaches in Rhodes

Looking for sandy slices of paradise away from the crowds? Here’s where to get off the beaten beach path in Rhodes.

Fourni Beach is close to Monolithos Castle, but far from the busy tourist resorts. Find shade beneath rocky cliffs and enjoy the unspoilt landscape.
A few kilometres from the nearest town of Kattavia, Mavros Kavos Beach is a hidden gem. Bring a picnic and stretch out on swaths of pristine sand with cedar trees and dunes for company.
Situated at the southernmost tip of Rhodes, the islet of Prasonisi is connected to the mainland by a sandy strip. One side delivers the waves for surfing and the other is a calm swimming haven. You’ll find markets, tavernas and guesthouses, but it’s otherwise free from development.
Intriguing rock formations and transparent water frames the pebbly beach of Kopria. Just a few sunbeds and a restaurant ensure a low key vibe, while offering everything you need.
