Back to newsStrong winds are forecast for Crete on Monday, with the Heraklion Port Authority issuing an official warning. Conditions are expected to affect maritime activity across the island, particularly around the Heraklion area. Tourists planning ferry trips or boat excursions should check with their operators before departure, as sailings may be delayed or cancelled. Those already on the island should avoid swimming in exposed coastal areas and exercise caution near clifftops and beaches with strong surf. If you have a rental boat or water sports activity booked, contact your provider directly to confirm availability. Stay updated through your accommodation or local port authority announcements throughout the day, as conditions may change. Inland sightseeing remains unaffected.
