Back to newsThe Greek Coast Guard rescued 35 migrants found at sea south of Agia Galini, a fishing village and resort town on Crete's southern coast. The operation was carried out in open Mediterranean waters, which are frequently used by vessels traveling from North Africa and the Middle East toward Europe. Rescue services responded and brought those involved safely to shore. This type of maritime rescue is a recurring responsibility for Greek coastal authorities in the area. Tourists visiting Agia Galini or the surrounding south coast beaches are not directly affected by such operations, as rescue activities take place offshore. The town itself remains open and accessible for visitors, and beaches in the area continue normal operations.
