Faliraki is the nearest big beach resort on the east coast, so after a morning flight you can often be on the sand before lunch.
Across the island in half an hour
Instead of following the coast, the drive cuts across the northern part of Rhodes through low hills and inland villages and reaches the east coast just above Faliraki. It is a short, straightforward trip with no motorway sections and no tolls.
On arrival days the main bottleneck is the airport area itself. Once out of Paradisi, traffic usually moves well, and the first view of the long bay appears as the road drops down towards the coast.
If your hotel is at the southern end of the resort, near the road to Ladiko, the driver may approach from a different junction than for hotels near the centre.
What Faliraki is like
Faliraki has a long, gently shelving sandy beach with water sports, a water park on the edge of the resort and a centre full of bars and restaurants. Its party reputation is mainly about a few streets in the centre, while many large family hotels sit along the quieter northern and southern ends of the bay.
To the south, the small cove known as Anthony Quinn Bay and the beach of Ladiko are a short ride away. To the north lies Kallithea with its restored spa buildings.
Practical tips for the Faliraki transfer
- Give the hotel name, not just the resort
- Faliraki stretches along several kilometres of coast. The exact address helps the driver choose the fastest approach.
- Groups of friends
- Groups of four or more with full-size suitcases fit more comfortably in a minivan than in two cars.
- Late arrivals
- Evening charter flights are common in summer. The driver waits even if your flight is late, at no extra cost.
