About Pefki
Pefki, also written Pefkos, is a smaller tourist resort close to Lindos that began as a few farms and private homes and has grown into a town in its own right. Homes cluster in and around it, and they are big: none sleep fewer than six, the typical home sleeps eight, and most have a private pool. Lindos, on the east coast, has an acropolis with the Doric Temple of Athena Lindia and a castle built by the Knights of St John, and its village is entirely pedestrianised. The east side of the island has almost continuous sandy beaches with calm water.
