Acropolis
Edit SpotAbout
Cool bit of fun on a very hot day on Rodos! Topped off with a nice Mythos afterwards....Say 'Boknaai' to the crazy guys at Ceasars Restaurant, Cosmas & Michael and take a trip on Jeannot's boat between Pefkos and Lindos.
Atmosphere:
I surf but scrounged a bodyboard off a tourist and it felt great for a bit of fun and the only surfer out...ever?
I wish I had my 6' 2" though as they were actually rippable little fun waves. I saw the exposed spots on the coastline and they were pumping, easily 4-6ft. I think Prasonissi must have been good. I saw one spot that was ripe for a shortboard, clue...a famous war film. Hey, it's not really a 'surfing' destination but you may be surprised by some little mess around sessions!
Additional Info:
Just a bit of fun!
