Pefkos Holidays – Relaxing resort with picturesque surroundings.
Pefkos is in the middle of the east coast of Rhodes, 2 miles from Lardos and Lindos and 37 miles from Rhodes Town and the airport. Pefkos holidays offer a low-key, relaxed and relatively undeveloped resort set in a sandy bay. Pefkos is set on a hillside and is surrounded by pine forests, hills, vineyards, olive groves, citrus plantations and fig trees. Holidays in Pefkos (which means “pine”) can enjoy a chain of sandy coves backed by tall pine trees. Pefkos is far from sleepy and has all the necessary amenities but it still remains a much quieter option than its famous neighbour Lindos. Pefkos holidays can enjoy a compact centre where you will find a decent range of Greek restaurants and tavernas and plenty of places catering for the British tourist too. Pefkos holidays offer a modest selection of bars and a disco. Those in search of something livelier should take a taxi to Lindos.

Pefkos holidays – A choice of excellent beaches
Pefkos holidays offer an appealing village that retains a good deal of traditional charm along with a long sandy beach. Pefkos has a sand and shingle beach with shallow water, fringed by pines and accessed by narrow lanes from the village. Small rocky coves with shallow water excellent for children continue from one end of the main beach. A short walk in either direction is rewarded with more small coves. The beach at Glystra is an attractive beach with excellent fine sand, popular with those on holiday in Pefkos. Pefkos holidays can also enjoy the neighbouring resort of Lardos, a quiet traditional Greek village with a long uncrowded sandy beach that continues for miles to the west. Other beaches that could be visited while on holiday in Pefkos include Lothiarika beach and the windsurfer’s favourite, Prasonissi beach; a striking mile-long stretch of sand with a couple of tavernas.
