Back to newsA traffic accident occurred on the coastal road (paraliaki) in Heraklion, Crete's largest city, when a motorcycle collided with a passenger car. Authorities arrived at the scene and are currently investigating the cause of the collision. Details on injuries have not been fully disclosed.
Tourists driving or riding motorcycles along Heraklion's coastal avenue should exercise caution, as this road is heavily used by both locals and visitors. Rental scooters and motorcycles are popular in Crete, but collisions involving two-wheeled vehicles are among the most common road incidents on the island. Always wear a helmet, observe speed limits, and remain alert to traffic merging from side streets along the coastal strip. If you are traveling by car in central Heraklion, allow extra time as accident scenes can cause temporary congestion on this busy seafront artery.
