Somewhere in southeast Europe you find Rhodes Island, it is the fourth largest island of the Greek islands and has a surface of 1,390 square kilometers.<\/span><\/p>\n Rhodes has a very interesting history out of which remain many objects to be seen today.<\/span><\/p>\n The island is mountainous with Akramytis (823m) in the southwest, Atavyros (1,215m) in the middle and Profitis Ilias (800m) in the north.\u00a0\u00a0The remaining area is not big but very green and Rhodes has many beautiful sand and stony beeches.<\/span><\/p>\n Rhodes has a Mediterranean climate with an average temperature around 19 degrees C. The winters are gentle and summers cool due to the constant northeast winds all summer long. The amount of sunny days lays around the 260, that\u2019s why Rhodes is called the sun island.\u00a0\u00a0Below you find a schematic of temperature change through the year.<\/span><\/p>\n Because of the constant wind on the west side of the island, this coast is very suitable for windsurfers. On the other hand is the sea at the east side more smooth and you find more sandy beaches on this side.<\/span><\/p>\n To those who want to enjoy the night life I suggest Faliraki or Rhodes town. If you are looking for piece and quiet I suggest the south side of the island, there you can enjoy Rhodos and find it like it was years back with beautiful nature and without too many tourist.<\/span><\/p>\n Money<\/strong>:\u00a0\u00a0Greece has introduced the Euro, money exchange is no problem and most banks have automatic service.\u00a0Time difference<\/strong>: It is two hours later in Greece\u00a0Electricity<\/strong>: 220 Volt (chucko outlet!).\u00a0Banks<\/strong>\u00a0open 08.00 to 14.00 and\u00a0post offices\u00a0<\/strong>open 08.00 to 14.00.\u00a0\u00a0Weekends closed.<\/span><\/p>\n Pubic transport<\/strong>: Local busses leave from mandraki harbor, they have a conductor on board who will sell you a ticket..
