West along the coast road of Rhodes is the village of Fanes, just west of Soroni, with a picturesque harbour and a flat isolated beach with tamarisk trees for some natural shade.

Understand

Fanes village is situated in the west coast of Rhodes island and about 22km far away from Rhodes town.

Fanes is small traditional agricultural Greek village with extensive farms.

We are getting out of large hotel territory here and about 30km from Rodos city. The beach is long and flat, mainly fine sharp sand and shingle with a couple of decent taverns at the back of the beach.

Do

Windsurfing and kitesurfing are hugely popular here, given the wide flat sands and the northerly exposure.
