West along the coast road of Rhodes is the village FANES, just west of Soroni, with a picturesque harbour and a flat isolated beach with tamarisk trees for some natural shade.
We are getting out of large hotel territory here and about 30km from Rodos city. The beach is long and flat, mainly fine sharp sand and shingle with a couple of decent tavernas at the back of the beach.
Windsurfing and kitesurfing are hugely popular here, given the wide flat sands and the northerly exposure.
