Back to newsA new group of migrants arrived by boat on the island of Gavdos, a small Greek island located south of Crete, in an incident witnessed by beachgoers. Gavdos is the southernmost point of Europe and a popular destination for visitors seeking remote beaches and a quiet atmosphere. Greek coast guard and local authorities responded to the landing. Such arrivals occasionally occur in the southern Aegean and Ionian sea routes. For tourists planning to visit Gavdos, ferry connections from Crete's southern ports of Paleochora and Sfakia operate normally. There is no reported disruption to tourism activities on Gavdos or elsewhere in Crete. Travelers are advised to stay informed through local news sources and follow any guidance issued by Greek authorities during their visit.
