About this audio guide
This guide to Traganou Beach on Rhodes opens with a small mystery: guidebooks can't agree how far it actually is from Rhodes Town, giving three different distances for the same stretch of pale pebble shore. You'll hear how the beach compares to the built-up loungers further north near Faliraki, and follow the walk toward its northern end, where the rock opens into a sea cave you can wade or swim straight into. Listen for how the clear water here supports small octopus and colorful fish along the rocks.
