How to Get to Prasonisi:  from Rhodes Town with a Car or Bike Hire.

Prasonisi, the stunning "island" that becomes a peninsula depending on the tides, is one of Rhodes' most breathtaking spots. If you're dreaming of golden sands, crystal-clear waters, and epic windsurfing conditions, this is the place to be. The best way to get there? A smooth, scenic road trip with a rental car or bike hire!

The Route: Rhodes Town to Prasonisi

By Car (Approx. 1.5 – 2 Hours)

If you prefer a relaxed drive with plenty of stops for photos (trust us, you’ll want them), a car is your best bet.

  1. Start at AutoRhodes (Rhodes Town) – Pick up your rental, check the fuel, and set your GPS for Prasonisi.
  2. Head South on the Main Road – Follow the Lindos-Kiotari Road (Rodos-Lindou). The route is well-signposted, so just keep heading south.
  3. Pass Through Lindos (Optional Stop) – If you have time, Lindos is worth a quick visit—whitewashed houses, the Acropolis, and charming tavernas.
  4. Continue Towards Katavia – After Lindos, the landscape gets wilder, with fewer villages and more open roads.
  5. Final Stretch to Prasonisi – The last part is a winding road leading to the southern tip of Rhodes. You’ll see the sea on both sides as you approach—this is when you know you’re close!

Pro Tip: Fill up the tank before leaving Rhodes Town—there aren’t many petrol stations on the way!

By Motorbike (Approx. 1.5 Hours – More Fun, More Wind!)

If you love the thrill of the open road, a bike rental is the way to go. The route is the same, but the experience? Totally different.

  • Feel the breeze as you ride past olive groves and coastal cliffs.
  • Easier parking – Bikes can get closer to the beach without worrying about space.
  • More adventurous – Just make sure to wear sunscreen (and maybe a light jacket—the wind picks up near Prasonisi!).

Biker’s Advice: Check the bike’s fuel and tires before setting off. The last thing you want is an unexpected pit stop!

What to Expect at Prasonisi

When you arrive, you’ll see why this place is special:

  • Two Beaches in One – On one side, the Aegean Sea (calm waters), and on the other, the Mediterranean (wavier waves).
  • Windsurfing & Kitesurfing Paradise – If you’re into water sports, this is the spot.
  • Stunning Views – Walk across the sandbar when the tide is low—it’s like stepping between two worlds.

Final Tips Before You Go

Start Early – The drive is beautiful but long, so leave in the morning to enjoy a full day.
Pack Snacks & Water – There are a few tavernas near Prasonisi, but options are limited.
Check the Weather – Windy days are great for surfers but can be rough for bikers.
Return Before Dark – The roads aren’t as well-lit at night.
