Theologos is being rapidly developed the last few decades and is one of the poles of attraction for many tourists, mainly thanks to the nice beach it offers and the vicinity to the airport and to the town of Rhodes.

Apart from the nice beach and the full facilities you will find in the resort, it is worth taking a tour in the area around. First of all, it is worth strolling in the old village.
