Greek coast guard authorities intercepted 43 undocumented migrants who arrived on the shores of Crete in the latest of several such incidents recorded along the island's coastline. The individuals were detained and processed according to standard Greek border control procedures. Incidents of this nature are handled by the Hellenic Coast Guard and relevant authorities, and do not typically affect tourist areas or day-to-day travel on the island. Visitors to Crete should be aware that coastal areas, particularly in less populated parts of the island, may occasionally see coast guard activity related to maritime border operations. Tourist beaches and resorts remain open and unaffected. If you witness anything unusual on a beach or at sea, contact the Greek Coast Guard at 108 or local police at 100.
