Selector

Choose one possible day.

Use this as a holiday menu: match the day to heat, wind, driving appetite and whether everyone needs sand, shade, ruins or water slides.

Rhodes summer rules

Do ruins first. Lindos, Kamiros and castles are morning-only with children in July heat. Beach or pool comes after.

Water before wants. Freeze bottles overnight, pack salty snacks, and reset every 60-90 minutes before hunger starts driving.

Respect the car day. Four hire-car days is enough. Pick one big north/west day, one boat or bay day, then keep two days east-coast easy.
