Stegna beach Rhodes

STEGNA beach on Rhodes is found at the end of a long, steep and winding lane signposted off the main road about 30km south of Rhodes Town and beyond the village of Archangelos.
Stegna, or Stegana as it is sometimes called, is a small and pretty resort where the main street backs onto a long stretch of golden sand that ends at a small harbour at one end.
During the day there is a quiet, family atmosphere at Stegna with a single large hotel that caters mainly for Germans and several apartment houses dotted around.
Evenings in Stegna can be a little more lively, especially along the more popular stretches of sand where beach parties are a feature, although it never gets too noisy.
Stegna beach is a mixture of sand and pebble, mostly pebble on the northern half, with shallow waters, a beach cantina and some water sports.
German tourists tend to monopolise Stegna beach near the hotel while caiques regularly pull in at the jetty during the day to add day trippers to the those relaxing on the rest of the sands.
In Stegna village are more tavernas, a couple of minimarkets and car hire firms. A bus runs daily to Rhodes Town and another bus runs south to Lindos from nearby Archangelos, though you'll need to be fit to tackle the steep hill that climbs out of Stegna.
