🌦️ Showers, 24°C at Pefki Beach🌧 6.2 mm
Rhodes splits in two on a meltemi day: the northwest wind hits the west coast (Ixia, Ialysos), which is the windsurfers' side, while the east coast from Faliraki to Lindos is in the lee and calm. At Prasonisi, the southern tip, the two seas meet: one side flat, the other side waves.
The meltemi blows from the northwest in summer, often for days on end.
