Ialysos & Ixia
A long, breezy beach and the island's windsurfing centre.
On the north-west coast, the beach from Ixia to Ialysos catches a steady wind most summer afternoons, which has made it the island's windsurfing centre. Schools and rental centres line the shore.
Not a surfer?
Watch the sails, walk the shore and stay for sunset: this coast faces west. Filerimos hill, with its monastery and views, is ten minutes inland.
Good to know
- Mornings are calmer for learners
- The beach is pebbly, so bring water shoes
- Rhodes Town is ten minutes up the coast
