Lindos Acropolis

I took an early morning walk up to the acropolis, got there about 9am and it was reasonably quiet. The entry fee is €20. There are quite a few steps but not as many as I thought there would be. The view and site are nice, spent about 15 minutes at the summit and was ready to come down by about 9.40. Stopped off at the little cafe to get a slushy and pastry for €11, a bit pricey but it had good views.

What a place, a steep hike up to the top but once there well worth it! Beautiful views across the island. We put our young child on a donkey as the walk was just too much for her. There was an unexpected heatwave whilst we were there meaning the temp reached 40 degrees.....I would not recommend doing this walk in this heat. We arrived very early in the morning and it was still blisteringly hot, I would perhaps go in the early evening if we were to do it again.

Visiting the Acropolis of Lindos was a great experience. The views over Lindos and St. Paul’s Bay are absolutely stunning – especially at sunset. We had booked the 19:00–20:00 time slot, hoping to catch the sunset from the top, but we were asked to start leaving about 30 minutes before closing. Just something to be aware of — it’s understandable since it takes time to guide everyone out safely. The ruins are impressive and full of history, and although the climb is a bit steep, it’s definitely worth it. Wear good shoes and bring water. Tip: Buy your tickets in person at the entrance — it was cheaper than booking online.

The Acropolis of Lindos is a stunning site that truly rewards the effort to reach it. The uphill path is beautiful, winding through charming alleys and offering glimpses of the sea. While the climb requires a bit of stamina, it’s absolutely worth it. At the top, the sandy-hued temple ruins, the sweeping views of the turquoise sea, and the whitewashed village below create a breathtaking panorama. A must-see in Rhodes.

Visit: June 2025 Very nice archeological site but I find the price to be too high - 20 Euro for a visit which is over in one hour, if you take it VERY slow. Mornings and evenings are very busy, but the reason is that otherwise it's way too hot. There are slippery parts so sport shoes are recommended. Avoid hats as they will most likely fly away.

The Acropolis of Lindos is an absolutely breathtaking site and a must-visit if you're in the area! The entrance fee is €20 per person, and it's worth every cent. The place is full of incredible archaeology and ancient history, with well-preserved ruins that truly transport you back in time. From the top, you'll enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the sea and the surrounding village — some of the most stunning photo opportunities in all of Rhodes. Be prepared for a fairly steep climb with many steps, as the site is located high above the town. It’s important to note that the site is not accessible for those with mobility issues. I highly recommend walking up by foot rather than using donkeys or other harmful means — the path is manageable and gives you time to enjoy the scenery. Highly recommended for history lovers, photography enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates a mix of culture and nature!

This is a must-do when in Rhodes! The views are gorgeous and it’s like the mini Athens acropolis. It’s especially beautiful on a nice sunny day which Rhodes has plenty of. Wear good shoes and bring lots of water as there isn’t much shade. It was also very crowded in October. Entry is cheaper for EU citizens but you must have a passport (if I remember correctly, I assume as I’ve experienced this in Athens) 🇬🇷

5 Stars – A Breathtaking Journey Through Time Visiting the Acropolis of Lindos was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Rhodes. The views from the top are absolutely breathtaking – a panoramic sweep of turquoise waters, rugged coastline, and the charming whitewashed village below that looks like it’s been frozen in time. The ancient ruins themselves are remarkably well-preserved. The towering Doric columns and stone pathways evoke a real sense of awe, especially considering how untouched and authentic everything feels. It’s clear that great care has been taken to maintain the site’s historical integrity without commercializing it too much. The cost of entry is very reasonable considering the beauty and history you get to experience. We spent hours exploring and soaking in the atmosphere – it’s peaceful, powerful, and full of stories. If you’re visiting Rhodes, the Acropolis of Lindos is an absolute must. Stunning views, ancient grandeur, and a glimpse into the soul of Greece
