Bad weather continues on the Greek islands

 


 Strong winds have stopped shipping to the Cyclades, Dodecanese and East Aegean islands from the ports of Piraeus, Lavrio and Rafina, the Greek newspaper Kathimerini reported.

The Diomede meteorological front, which has passed through Greece since the beginning of the week, has brought snowfall to northern Greece and the Attica mountains.

Ferry services in the Saronic Gulf continue, but the Perama-Palukia route between mainland Piraeus and the island of Salamis has been canceled.

Ferries in central and northern Greece have also been stopped: Agia Marina-Nea Styra, Kavala-Prinos (on the island of Thassos) and Alexandroupolis-Samothrace are not running.

 Passengers with ferry tickets for Thursday must contact port authorities and travel agencies to clarify the timetables.

On Wednesday night, the route from Piraeus to Heraklion and Chania in Crete, initially approved, was eventually canceled.
