A 4.2 magnitude earthquake struck near Leonidio, a coastal town in the Peloponnese region of southern mainland Greece. The tremor was recorded by seismological authorities and felt in surrounding areas. No damage to buildings or infrastructure was reported, and no injuries were recorded. Leonidio is located on the Greek mainland, not on Crete, approximately 200 kilometers north of the island. Tourists currently visiting Crete were not affected by this event. Minor seismic activity is common throughout Greece due to the region's position along active tectonic fault lines. Visitors to Crete can continue their plans without concern. If you experience any earthquake while in Greece, move away from windows, take cover under sturdy furniture, and follow guidance from local authorities. No travel disruptions were reported as a result of this tremor.
