Agathi Beach Rhodes

Agathi Beach is a spectacular and remarkably popular sandy shore on the eastern coast of Rhodes, located near the village of Haraki and overlooked by the dramatic ruins of the medieval Feraklos Castle that stands on the rocky headland. It features a long stretch of very fine golden sand and exceptionally shallow, crystal-clear turquoise water that remains calm and warm throughout the summer, making it a premier choice for families with young children and those who prefer a relaxed swim. The beach is well-organized with several rows of sunbeds, umbrellas, and traditional canteens that offer a comfortable and social environment for a diverse international crowd who enjoy the mix of natural beauty and professional service. The surrounding landscape consists of high rocky cliffs and sparse Mediterranean vegetation, providing a simple and dramatic frame to the sea while protecting the bay from the open maritime winds. Access is very easy via a paved road that winds through the hills, and there is a large parking area available for the many visitors who arrive to experience this well-maintained and highly sought-after location. The water is consistently clean and the entry is very easy and sandy for all swimmers, providing a safe and inviting spot for a long day by the sea in one of the island's most photogenic and hospitable bays.
