Back to newsTwo earthquakes struck Crete overnight, affecting the western region of Chania and the eastern region of Lasithi within a short time of each other. Seismic activity is common in Crete due to its location along active fault lines in the eastern Mediterranean, and minor to moderate tremors occur regularly across the island. Authorities have not reported any injuries, damage, or disruption to infrastructure at this time. Tourists staying or traveling in these areas should be aware that aftershocks can follow initial tremors. If you feel shaking, move away from windows, take cover under sturdy furniture, and avoid using elevators. For the latest updates on local conditions, check with your accommodation or monitor official announcements from Greek civil protection services. Normal travel and tourism activities across the island are not expected to be affected.
