Ixia beach

Overview: Just three miles (5km) from Rhodes Town is the developed resort of Ixia with a wide range of accommodation to suit most holidaymakers' tastes. The west coast receives a constant summer breeze, which tempers the heat, and provides excellent conditions for windsurfing. The shingle beach follows the curve of the main road with most of the tourist accommodation along the road; bathers should take care, as the waves can be a little rough. Most hotels have pools and deckchairs for those who prefer not to brave the sea. Ixia is ideal for family holidays or an older clientele; there are only a few pubs and bars that close at midnight, but most hotels provide family entertainment programs, and its proximity to Rhodes Town means that all the amenities of a large town are only a short taxi ride away.
