Santorini, Greece’s top tourist island, experienced fresh tremors, with over 200 minor earthquakes recorded. The strongest, a 4.6-magnitude quake, hit waters between Santorini and Amorgos on Sunday. A 4.2-magnitude tremor followed on Monday near Anafi. Authorities ruled out a major quake but advised caution. Many residents and tourists spent the night outdoors, while others left by flight or ferry. Schools remained closed, and officials urged people to avoid enclosed spaces and unsafe structures. Santorini, which saw 3.4 million visitors in 2023, faces renewed concerns over safety and overtourism.
