Rhodes International Airport (RHO), also known as Diagoras, is the fourth-busiest airport in Greece. Located on the northern coast 14 km southwest of historic Rhodes Town and Mandraki Harbour, it provides vital links to island resorts like Faliraki, Ixia, and Lindos.
Rhodes Airport (Diagoras) is located 14 km southwest of Rhodes Town. The RODA Public Airport Bus is the top budget option, running every 20-30 minutes directly to Mandraki Harbour and the Medieval Old Town in 30-35 minutes for €2.50. An official taxi takes 20 minutes for €25 - €30.
Faliraki is 16 km away (cross-island), while whitewashed Lindos is 50 km south. A direct taxi or private transfer is the top choice, taking 20 minutes to Faliraki (€30 - €35) and 50 minutes to Lindos (€75 - €85). Direct seasonal buses connect to Faliraki for €3.50, while Lindos public transit requires transferring at Rhodes Town (€7.50 total).
The modernised Fraport terminal has two connected levels. The public RODA bus stop to Rhodes Town is located just 50 meters outside arrivals, while the official taxi rank is positioned immediately in front of the exit doors.
Be aware that public buses do not accept credit cards onboard—carry small Euro change (€2.50) or purchase tickets at the kiosk. Taxis use fixed price boards for major resort towns.
Public buses run until around 23:00. Taxis operate around the clock, with fixed island tariffs posted on a large signboard at the official taxi dispatch desk.
Traveling with heavy suitcases, young children, or landing after midnight? Pre-book a fixed-price private airport transfer or express rail pass on Klook with instant confirmation and no meter haggling.
Airport Wi-Fi often drops outside the terminal curb where Local Taxi pickup zones are located. Install a local eSIM before your flight so you can order a ride, translate station signs, and show digital train QR tickets immediately after landing.
