Rhodes Faliraki
By Paul J. Green
Faliraki is like one big funfair, with a vast, multiethnic crowd tirelessly in pursuit of pleasure, day and night – in the morning on the famous beach with its striped umbrellas, at night in the narrow streets with their garish neon lights and loud noise. Water battles till you drop at the impressive water park, races at the go-cart track, gallons of beer in the little bars on Ermou St., queues outside the big clubs on the main boulevard.
One of the liveliest coastal resorts on the island, Faliraki has two different sides: on one hand the big, luxury hotels with their private beaches and full range of facilities, on the other the noisy center of the town with its jewelery shops, Irish pubs, ethnic restaurants (Italian, Indian, Chinese, Mexican) and constant movement. Ermou St., which runs down to the sea from the main road, is where most of the bars are to be found, as well as the clothes boutiques for the younger crowd, jewelery shops and fast-food outlets. At the end of the street stands the famous Chaplin’s, the best known of all the island’s beach bars and one of the few places where you might see some Greek faces. Generally speaking the area is overrun by Brits! Around the town there are facilities for a whole range of activities (go-carting, funfair, mini football, etc..) as well as all kinds of clubs, even a live strip-tease show.
At the end of Ermou St., in front of Chaplin’s, is the taxi rank and first-aid centre. This is also where the miniature train sets out for the tour of the town. If you’ve had enough of the crowds, the nearest escape is Profitis Amos, on the road towards Rhodes town, on the outskirts of Faliraki. There, in a delightful clearing in the woods, with strutting peacocks, you will find a quiet taverna where you can eat good food and enjoy the view of brightly illuminated Faliraki in the distance.
When someone is visiting Rhodes the following things are truly useful: Map of Rhodes Rhodes Tourist Guide and a list of Rhodes Hotels offering great facilities in low rates.
Hello! My name is Sifis Mamounakis and I was born in the beautiful island of Crete and more specifically in Chania, one of the most beautiful locations of Crete. Although I am a proud Cretan I really like to travel and there are too many places all over Greece that I adore. Here, I will try to share my experiences with you and I would really like to learn about yours too.
