A magnitude 4.1 earthquake struck the Lasithi region of eastern Crete on Sunday evening. The epicenter was located approximately 18 kilometers southwest of Goudoura, a coastal area in the southeastern part of the island. Earthquakes of this size are common in Crete due to its position along active tectonic fault lines, and this event is not considered unusual for the region. No damage or injuries have been reported. Tourists staying in or traveling through Lasithi, including popular destinations such as Sitia, Ierapetra, and the Minoan palace of Kato Zakros, should not be concerned. Normal travel and activities in the area can continue without disruption. If you feel a tremor during your stay in Crete, move away from windows, stay calm, and follow guidance from local authorities or your accommodation.
