St Pauls Bay Greece

Soak up the warm sunshine and bathe in the crystal-clear waters of St Pauls Bay Lindos.

Spend the morning swimming with the fishes and marvel at the vibrant marine life beneath the water's surface.

If you're seeking some quiet time, find a secluded section of the sandy beach. Lounge in the warm sun with a sweet cocktail in one hand and a book in the other. There's more to St Pauls Bay than beaches though. So, keep reading to discover all the fantastic things you can do in St Pauls Bay during your visit.

Travel back in time

Appreciate the historical beauty of the island and begin your trek up to the Acropolis of Lindos. It won't take long before you reach the top of the stone path. From here, you can start exploring the ancient ruins of one of the most visited archaeological sites in Greece.

If you're travelling with little ones or someone who may find the walk up the cliff-side a bit strenuous, they can take a traditional donkey ride to the top. Walk through the 14th-century Castle of the Knights of St. John and snap a panoramic shot of Lindos and the turquoise sea. Take the stairway to the Propylaia. But, don't forget to stop by the Temple of Athena Lindia, where you'll get the best views of St Pauls Bay Lindos beneath.

Stroll through the village

Wander through the narrow alleyways of Lindos village. It's easy to immerse yourself in the historical culture of your surroundings. Pass whitewashed buildings while you shop for souvenirs and treat yourself to a gift from one of the boutique shops scattered throughout the village. Many of the mansions and historical buildings date back to the 17th century, making you feel as though you've stepped back in time. As you explore the cobbled streets, you'll notice a lot of artistic pebbled mosaics both on the ground and walls of the village. Try not to get lost though. The town is entwined with a labyrinth of narrow streets designed to confuse wayward pirates.

Go swimming at St. Pauls Bay Lindos

St Pauls Bay is known for its picturesque scenery, golden sands and turquoise waters. Going to the beach should definitely be on the top of your itinerary for your visit. Kids can swim in the shallow water near the shoreline. If you want to cool down, go for a refreshing swim in the sheltered waters along the bay. Lying beneath the water's surface is a world of marine life begging to be explored. Grab your snorkelling or scuba diving gear from the water sports centre nearby and head to the sea for some deep-sea exploration.

Enclosed by rocky cliffs, the beach itself is ideal for soaking up the warm sunshine without any windy breezes to interrupt you. The silky sands are soft enough to lie on. But, if you prefer, you can opt for a comfy sun lounger and rent a beach umbrella for some added shade. If you need a break from the sun, St Pauls Bay Lindos happens to be backed with an array of tavernas. So you can grab a refreshing drink and graze on traditional Greek meals before heading back out.
