How to avoid the worst of it today

The Street of the Knights 9:00 At nine the cobbles are yours and the Palace opens without a line.
The old town lanes Midday Two streets off the spine there are courtyards, balconies and workshops, and no groups.
Lindos Late afternoon The lanes and the acropolis steps punish midday twice, with crowds and with heat.

Where the crowds are

The Street of the Knights & the near gates: The corridor from the port to the Palace, at its densest by mid-morning.
Lindos: One narrow lane system plus coach waves plus heat; midday compounds all three.
