Despite a definite increase in tourism on the Greek island of Rhodes, the number of Greek local tourists has dramatically decreased.

Only 5 per cent of tourists on the island are from Greece, dropping from the 10 per cent of tourists recorded last year.

In June, 350,000 tourists arrived at Rhodes Airport, an increase of 8.4% compared to the same period in 2013.

The situation in the Greek island of Naxos is also indicative of the crisis that has hit households in Greece. In June, 20% of people who visited the island were Greeks, while last year their number was almost 30%.
