Just south of the chora of Lindos there´s an completely enclosed bay- St Pauls Bay. This is a gem but only room for 3-4 boats and shorelines needed.
We came in settled weather so the narrow passage presented no problem and the walk up to the chora was only 15-20mins.
Still with a lot of tourists we continued up to the Akropolis of Lindos from around 400B.C devoted to Athena. As usual there was a church inside from Byzantine times and a castle built in the 14th century from the crusafers (ordern of St John).
Rhodes surrendered to the Ottomans 1522 who made some modifications of the castle.
