Rethymno: Water Springs Flow Again After 3-Year Drought

Wednesday, 25 March 2026/SourceCretaOne/1 min read

After three years of drought, natural water springs in the Sisses area of Milopota have resumed flowing. The springs, located along the provincial road between Sisses and Aloida at the foothills of the Talei Mountains, had been dried up due to prolonged lack of rainfall in previous years.

The reopening of these natural springs, which typically flow during winter months, marks a welcome development for the region's water resources. The impressive natural phenomenon is now visible once again, offering hope that rainfall patterns may be improving in the area.
