Everywhere in Lindos and Rhodes town you will see bars, discos, and restaurants with food from all over the world. On the one hand this might take away a bit of the "Greekness" of the island, but on the other hand you have everything you want here. Many locals are involved with tourism in one way or the other, but there is also a lot of farmers on the island. They grow grapes and keep goats. Because it is a large island, many also have "ordinary" occupations: civil servants, shopowners, office clerks etc. There is also a large military base on the island. Rhodes used to be the sungod Helios' island. According to mythology, he had fallen in love with the nymph Rhodes, and when he shone his light on her, she transformed into the island. The name means "rose" and the island is known since antiquity as a flowery place. Rhodes is the largest island in the Dodecanese. Its capital city, located at its northern tip, is the capital of the Prefecture with the Medieval Town in its centre. In 1988 the Medieval Town was designated as a World Heritage City.

Long centuries ago Knidos was a major Dorian city, celebrated for its temples, theatres, statue of Aphrodite, the world's first observatory, and medical school.The town, renowned for its history as much as for its geography, and boasting an attractive landscape, used to have two ports; one for commercial and one for military purposes. According to the historian Strabon, the military port was large enough to hold 20 warships and its entrance used to be closed off with chains when necessary; whereas the second port to the south, the commercial port, used to have a windbreaker extending out from both sides. Knidos used to be surrounded with 15-kilometer (9-mile) city walls and had three entrance gates; two on the northern and one on the eastern wall. The acropolis was located on a hill northeast of the city. As far as is understood from the surviving ruins, the town used to have two theaters, one Odeon, two temples, a stoa, an agora, and a number of other buildings. The most interesting among them was perhaps the Temple of Aphrodite. The boat will anchor for the night in Mersincik
