Zurück zu NachrichtenGreek Coast Guard and rescue services conducted a major search-and-rescue operation in the waters south of Crete, off the coast of Kalos Limenes, rescuing 192 migrants whose vessel was in distress. Kalos Limenes is a small coastal village on the southern shore of Heraklion regional unit, known for its quiet beaches and historic anchorage mentioned in the Bible as Fair Havens. The operation involved multiple vessels and was successfully completed with all 192 individuals brought to safety. For tourists visiting the southern coast, there are no direct practical implications for travel or beach access. The area around Kalos Limenes remains open to visitors. Such rescue operations are conducted offshore and are managed entirely by the Hellenic Coast Guard, with no disruption to local tourism activities or coastal roads.
