Seismic Activity in Santorini

As widely reported, our beautiful island of Santorini is experiencing a complex seismic event since the beginning of February 2025, due to a more intense seismic sequence in the Anydros area 19 miles northeast of Santorini.

Although Santorini is an active volcano with minor eruptions during the 20th century, with episodes of unrest without an eruption, the current 3-week duration of seismicity has led to the application of several civil protection measures by the Greek Government out of an abundance of caution.

The Government continues to monitor the situation closely and based upon expert national and international scientific information will, where and when necessary, take precautionary measures to secure Santorini.

Similar to many of the world’s other high-demand volcanic tourist destinations, Santorini goes through a period of unrest. We respectfully urge potential visitors to adopt and comply with measures and guidelines issued by local and national authorities.
