No Ferries Departing from Piraeus, Rafina and Lavrio Due to Bad Weather

UPDATE: The ban on ferry sailings from the ports of Piraeus and Lavrio has been lifted due to an improvement in weather conditions.

The Greek authorities on Tuesday issued a ban on sailing from the ports of Piraeus, Rafina and Lavrio due to strong north winds reaching between 8 to 9 on the Beaufort scale in the Aegean sea.

Routes to islands of the Saronic Gulf will operate only with closed type vessels.

Also not running are the ferry lines Agia Marina-Nea Styra and Keramoti-Limenas Thassos.

Passengers who have plans to travel today are advised to contact the local port authorities and travel agencies before their departure to be informed of any changes or modifications to the routes that may occur due to adverse weather conditions.
