Rhodes

The island is located on the most eastern part of Greece and is only a short distance away from the coast of Turkey. The Island is surrounded by lots of small islands that are uninhabited due to the rocky nature of the land. Rhodes is a wonderful location for vacationers as it offers some of the best watersports facilities in Greece. The Island is covered largely by greenery and wonderful water fountains. The island is also home to one of the seven wanders of the ancient world, the Colossus of Rhodes (giant Statue of Helios the God) which is a world heritage site.
