Back to newsMilitary firing exercises are currently taking place in zones A1 and A2 of the Crete Firing Range (ΠΒΚ), designated military training areas along the Cretan coastline. The Hellenic Navy has issued a notice asking all passing vessels to exercise caution when navigating through or near these zones during the exercise period. Sailors, yacht charterers, and anyone planning sea travel along the affected coastal areas should check local port authority announcements before departure and maintain a safe distance from the marked zones. The exercises are routine military training activities and do not affect land-based tourism. If you are on a boat trip or sailing holiday, ask your skipper or charter company to confirm the current status of these restricted areas before setting out.
