Answer the question:
Roughly how many miles of coastline does Rhodes have?
Rhodes coastline is 253 kilometres (from promotion partner Visit Greece website: https://www.visitgreece.gr/experiences/beaches/the-beaches-of-rhodes/ )
= 157.207 miles
My suggested answer is 157 but make up your own mind!

From the NatGeo text:
In the Dodecanese, Rhodes is a favourite for visitors to the Greek islands. The old town of Rhodes city captures the imagination with a UNESCO-listed medieval citadel, a gothic castle and tales of valorous knights. Outside the city walls, there are almost 160 miles of coastline and mountains carpeted by pine forests. Experience it from Boutique 5 Hotel & Spa, the local outpost of H Hotels Collection. This five-star, adults-only property is just a few steps from Kiotari beach and a 20-minute drive from the clifftop village of Lindos. Relax by the sea, unwind at the spa and end the day at Impressions, the on-site restaurant serving Mediterranean dishes like cod salad with sea fennel and capers, and sea bream with fish roe and cuttlefish ink foam.
So i'd probably go for 160 to be on the safe side27 -
