The Heraklion region is among the areas impacted. Tourists staying in affected neighborhoods may experience temporary disruptions to air conditioning, charging facilities, and other electrical services during the outage windows. If you are staying in Heraklion or surrounding villages on June 29, check with your accommodation in advance to confirm whether your area is affected and whether backup power is available. Restaurants, shops, and hotels in impacted zones may also operate on reduced capacity. Outages of this type are typically scheduled during daytime hours and resolved within a few hours.
