I've been watching this, we went to Rhodes just before Covid hit and we loved it. Where we stayed is being evacuated, Pefki. A lovely little family run hotel called the Chrysanthi. We hope they are all ok. | | | |

It’s clear just what humanity and class Greek people have listening to the testimonies from those evacuated .
Something we need to reflect on in this country | |

I've seen some interviews where people were moaning yet all around them people are facing possibly losing their businesses, their homes and what were those people doing, helping the tourists to safety.
We were only there for a week but we left some friends there, the owners of the hotel, other locals who were so incredibly nice and generous.
Lets hope they come out of this ok. All of them. | | | |

Rhodes is amazing, especially the old town. The big knights hospitalier castle is incredible and the museum underneath is one of the best I’ve been to anywhere in the world. |  |

Went there first in the mid 80's . They couldn't get electrical goods cheap there and I had a new portable cassette player which I had brought out with me. On the way to the beach daily this Greek guy who owned a scooter /motorbike hire business would approach me and offer to buy my cassette player. Each day I refused but everyday the price went up . I said to the Mrs - wait till the end of the week. Sure enough by the Saturday the price had more than doubled . I then said to him OK you can have the cassette player for that price but I want also The largest motorbike you've got and a full tank of petrol free for a day. He agreed , I handed over the cassette player took the cash and off we went on a tour of the island. Went all over Rhodes - Old Town , Valley of the Butterflies , Ancient Kamiros , Lindos finally Faliraki. Fantastic trip no crash helmets just shorts and t shirts as the weather was hot .
Rhodes is a lovely place to visit lots to see and far more interesting than a lot of Greek islands , People are helpful and friendly . One other thing which was quite unusual - there was a shark sighting on the beach in Faliraki when we were there . There were warning signs put up and I think the Greeks caught it in the end and it wasn't a small one either. | | | |

if you get off the beaten track there is more, did you get to Monolithos? There is an incredible Greek orthodox church there, absolutely stunning. The locals were giving us food and drink.
On a down side though, we went snorkelling off a boat and the boat owner was telling us theres hardly any fiish these days but 30 years ago the coastline was teeming with fish. The water is so clear and warm but we have killed off far too many creatures. | | | |

Arrests have been made in relation to starting these fires. Throw the book at them |  | | |
