Let me throw some numbers at you: January-April 2025: 3.2 million international air arrivals, an increase of 197,000 (6.5%) compared to the same period in 2024. Dodecanese: 217,000 arrivals (+6.1%). April 2025: 1.6 million international air arrivals, an increase of 122,000 (8.4%) compared to April 2024. (GTP Headlines and Tornos News.) “Rhodes is among the top European destinations experiencing a surge in international air arrivals…”
So how come:
That was yesterday around 16.30, a time when, in June, the village square is usually bustling with folk on their way back from the beach, and those who prefer to spend the afternoons chatting in the shade of the village square. Head to Yialos between 11.00 and 16.00 and there’s hardly enough air to go round, the place is so busy. Head down there in the evening, and (I am told) you’ll find some eatery/drinkery businesses shutting up shop at 22.00 through lack of custom. Quiet? I should cocoa.
The reason? No idea. And I can’t think of anything else to write today.
