WARNING FOR EVERYONE FLYING IN GREECE: Tourists are shocked by new rules

During the peak of the summer season in Greece, the municipality of Kasandra on Chalcidice has introduced stricter rules for the use of public beaches to prevent early occupation. Official notices have been posted at several beaches stating that items such as sun loungers, towels, and other equipment cannot be left unattended to 'reserve' a spot. Owners have 24 hours to remove their belongings, after which local authorities may remove them, declare the items abandoned, and dispose of them according to regulations without the obligation to return them. This decision aligns with laws ensuring free access to public beaches and preventing illegal occupation. The goal is to ensure equal availability of beaches for all visitors. Many tourists have welcomed this measure, believing it will promote fairer usage of beaches and address the long-standing issue of pre-occupation of spots.
