The Aegean Islands region
The Aegean Islands are a large group of islands in the Aegean Sea. The most easterly group of the Greek Islands, they enjoy a good year round climate and plenty of historical interest. The advantage of Rhodes is its proximity to other smaller islands and also the coastline of Turkey. After taking in the historical wonders of Rhodes you can enjoy a short boat trip across the water to Marmaris and experience the bazaars. From Rhodes you can also make short boat journeys to Symi, Chalki and, a little further afield, Kos. Rhodes is a perfect holiday destination as direct flights fly from the UK and most of Europe from April-October.

The island has been under the control of many different nationalities including the Italians and Germans and has been invaded countless times by the Turkish and some Arab nations.

Each culture has left their mark on the island, from the Italian Spas at Kallithea and Mussolini's hotel at Profitas Ilias. The Turkish have mosques and other stylistic buildings in the main roads town and the destruction caused in WW2 is evident from the ruined castle at Haraki. We must not, of course, forget the Greeks! The island was only handed back to Greece in 1947 after occupation by the Italians. But the real history to the island has been left by the ancient Greeks.
