We went to Halki for one day by boat from Rhodes. Boats leave from the port of ancient Kameiros in Rhodes and I remember we left every early in the morning, about 6 or 7 o'clock. It takes about an hour to go to Halki and when we arrived it was quiet early still and not many people were on the road. We had a delicious Greek coffee in the port and the waiter told us to go to swim in Podamos. In fact, he show us the way and suggested we walk. After all, there was no other way to go (no bus works on Halki, the locals don't actually need it because there is only one village there and distances are small). We walked about 20 minutes to go to the beach, which was also not crowded at all. Only an old couple with the grand children were there but the beach had some umbrellas to protect from shade. Returned to Nimporio at about noon and had lunch in a tavern by the port. The menu had some strange dishes that we didn't see in Rhodes, like stuffed lamb and some fried cookies with tomato and onion. Delicious all, it must be local cuisine! The boat to Rhodes left in the afternoon, so we had much time to walk in Nimporio and see the village.
