Greece remains a generally safe destination for travelers as of late April 2025, though there are some important updates to be aware of before your journey. The U.S. State Department currently advises visitors to exercise normal precautions in Greece, which is considered a low-risk destination according to the Risk Map 2025.

If you're planning to visit the Greek islands, particularly Santorini, Amorgos, Anafi, or Ios, be aware that a series of earthquakes has affected these areas since early February 2025. While no significant damage has been reported and seismologists confirm the activity is linked to undersea fault lines rather than volcanic unrest, it's advisable to stay informed through official updates and follow local safety guidelines.

For those traveling to Greece in 2025, an increased tourism tax went into effect on January 1st. This tax varies based on your accommodation type and the time of year, so factor this additional cost into your budget whether you're staying in hotels or short-term rentals like Airbnb.

U.S. citizens can visit Greece without a tourist visa for stays less than 90 days, though official and diplomatic passport holders will need to obtain a visa.

When exploring Greece, standard safety precautions apply. Use official taxis or public transportation, always wear seatbelts, and avoid using cell phones while driving. For water activities, be mindful of tidal changes and strong winds that can cause hazardous currents. Always obey warning flags at beaches, keep a safe distance from restricted areas, and exercise caution during severe weather.

Female travelers should be particularly vigilant as there have been reports of sexual assaults against foreigners, especially on the islands. Don't accept rides from strangers or casual acquaintances.

The healthcare system in Greece is well-equipped to handle emergencies, and authorities maintain high security in major tourist areas. Despite occasional disruptions to public transportation and potential road closures, Greece continues to welcome millions of visitors annually and remains one of Europe's most popular and beautiful destinations.
