The small sandy beach of Glystra is situated at a distance of 55 kilometers far from the town of Rhodes at the Southwest, some 11 kilometers after Lindos. It is a nice beach, within an environment of lush vegetation, calm enough and not very crowded. The combination of the blue sea and the golden sand with the green of the plants and trees around makes it very scenic and relaxing. The beach is in fact a small cove, some 200 meters long and 30 meters wide, with fine golden sand, interrupted by pebbly spots with tiny and find pebbles. Seen from afar, it looks like a golden bow. Accommodation facilities are available in the broader area and in the nearby tourist resorts. The beach is well enough organized, offering facilities for swimming and sunbathing (sun beds and umbrellas) and some sea sports (pedalos and canoe). The sea is shallow, suitable for any age. It is a quiet beach, for mild activities. Children will enjoy playing with the sand and collecting shells and small pebbles. The fans of snorkeling may try their favorite sport at the rocky sea bed of the ends of the beach. Some small rocks within the sea, at the center of the cove give the chance of a nice swimming excursion. Those who come here, tell that it is so beautiful that they would not advertise the beach too much, as it is better to remain unknown to big crowds. Access to the beach from the settlements of Lardos or Lindos is possible by taxi, or by rented or private car and motorbikes. If you depart from the town of Rhodes, you have to use a private means. The road from Lindos to Kattavia passes just beside the beach, which makes access to the beach very easy. You will park your car very close to the sand and walk just for a few meters to reach the sea.
