A 3.7 magnitude event is generally considered minor and is unlikely to cause structural damage or injury. Tourists in the area may feel a brief tremor but there is no cause for alarm. No tsunami warning was issued. Visitors staying in hotels or rental properties in eastern Crete can continue their plans as normal.
