Rhodes Faliraki

Faliraki is like one large funfair, with a vast, multiethnic crowd tirelessly in chase of pleasure, twenty-four hours and nighttime - in the morning time on the celebrated beach with its striped umbrellas, at nighttime in the narrow streets with their garish Ne visible lights and loud noise. Water conflicts till you drop at the impressive H2O park, races at the go-cart track, gals of suds in the small parallel bars on Ermou St., waiting lines outside the large baseball clubs on the chief boulevard.

One of the liveliest coastal vacation spots on the island, Faliraki have two different sides: on one manus the big, extravagance hotels with their private beaches and full scope of facilities, on the other the noisy centre of the town with its jewelery shops, Irish pubs, ethnical eating houses (Italian, Indian, Chinese, Mexican) and changeless movement. Ermou St., which runs down to the sea from the chief road, is where most of the parallel bars are to be found, as well as the clothing dress stores for the little crowd, jewelery shops and fast-food outlets. At the end of the street stand ups the celebrated Chaplin's, the best known of all the island's beach parallel bars and one of the few topographic points where you might see some Grecian faces. Generally speaking the country is overproduction by Brits! Around the town there are installations for a whole scope of activities (go-carting, funfair, mini football, etc..) as well as all sorts of clubs, even a unrecorded strip-tease show.

At the end of Ermou St., inch presence of Chaplin's, is the cab rank and first-aid centre. This is also where the illumination railroad train sets out for the circuit of the town. If you've had enough of the crowds, the nighest flight is Profitis Amos, on the route towards Cecil Rhodes town, on the outskirts of Faliraki. There, in a delicious glade in the woods, with strutting peacocks, you will happen a quiet taverna where you can eat good nutrient and bask the position of brightly illuminated Faliraki in the distance.
