A major water pipe failure has caused supply interruptions in several neighborhoods of Heraklion, Crete's largest city. Repair crews are working to fix the damage, though no restoration timeline has been confirmed. Tourists staying in affected areas may experience reduced or no running water in their accommodations. If you are based in Heraklion, check with your hotel or rental host for updates, as properties may arrange bottled water in the meantime. Bottled water is widely available at supermarkets and convenience stores throughout the city. Visitors planning day trips to Heraklion are not expected to be significantly impacted, though restroom facilities at some venues could be affected. Follow local announcements or ask your accommodation for the latest on when service will be restored.
