Grška vlada je posodobila seznam plaž, na katerih veljajo še posebej stroga pravila. Seznam, na katerem je bilo do letos navedenih 198 plaž, so dopolnili in dodali 53 plaž.
Na določenih odsekih obale je po novem strogo prepovedano oddajanje senčnikov in ležalnikov. Poleg komercialne uporabe je prepovedana tudi rezervacija mest s senčniki, lastnimi ležalniki ali celo polaganjem brisač. Kršitelje čakajo visoke globe, ki se glede na resnost prekrška gibljejo od 2.000 pa vse do 60.000 evrov.
Nadzor z droni
Splošno pravilo, ki velja od leta 2024, določa, da morajo biti ležalniki in senčniki postavljeni vsaj štiri metre od roba morja. Hoteli, bari in restavracije lahko po novem zasedejo le še tretjino celotne površine plaže, medtem ko mora preostalih 70 odstotkov ostati prostih za javno uporabo.
Za zagotavljanje spoštovanja teh pravil bodo oblasti izvajale redne kontrole, pri čemer si bodo pomagale tudi z droni, ki bodo preletavali obalo, poroča portal Heute.
Tudi Grčija se sooča s vse večjo turistično obremenitvijo. V lanskem letu so zabeležili rekordnih 38 milijonov obiskovalcev.
![Story from Jam Press (Travel Cheaper Fines)Pictured: Laura, Paul, Lucy and Emily.'I'm saving Ł3,000 on EACH family holiday by taking the kids away during term-time'A mum has revealed how she's saving Ł3,000 on each family holiday by taking her kids away during term-time.It's no secret that holiday prices soar during the school holidays.According to Go Compare, the high demand for a break away with the kids during the Easter holidays saw trips rise by 9% compared to non-peak periods.And with the ongoing war between Iran and the US, causing fuel shortage scares, it's been reported that airlines are raising fares to combat jet fuel price increases.It's a never ending battle, especially as schools fine Ł80 per parent, per child for any unauthorised absences up to five days during term-time, too.But for Laura Melling, a mum-of-two, she's saving herself a fortune by going against the rules and taking her kids away as and when she pleases."It's ridiculous, they're my children – not the school's," the nurse, from Leyland, told creatorzine.com."It works out cheaper to pay the fine than school holiday prices."I don't feel guilty in the slightest."My kids are having the best experiences rather than sitting in a boring classroom."And we're saving a fortune."It's a no-brainer."Laura, 36, and her husband, Paul, 37, have shelled out over Ł500 in fines to date.But by jetting off during term-time, they're saving themselves an estimated Ł3,000 per trip.And the mum to Lucy, eight, and Emily, seven, admits that teachers aren't usually too displeased with their decision.She said: "The teachers are usually supportive and say they wish they could do it."All the parents agree with me too."A few of them have followed suit after seeing us do it."So far, they've been to Egypt, Tunisia and France.And they've never paid more than Ł1,000 to get away for a week.Earlier this year, for example, they flew to Lapland.Instead of forking out Ł700-per-person for the flights in December, they went at the start of term in January, costing just Ł40-per-head.Their car hire was Ł189, rather than Ł545 during the school holidays and their accommodation came to just Ł500 instead of Ł1,900.In total, it saved them Ł2,946.The parents will refuse to take their kids aways during important educational situations, such as during the SATs and GCSEs.But while they're young, they're making the most of freedom – and teaching them valuable lessons along the way.Laura added: "My kids are learning life skills."They learn in different ways when away, so we're not neglecting their education."They have learning apps on their iPads and workbooks to complete."I would love to [take them out of school full-time] however I don't think our balance would cope; we need to work."My children are realising the world is a big place and they are now seeing different cultures."Everyone needs a break from the mundane, so being away gives us all time to relax and enjoy each other's company without being stuck in a routine."ENDS,Image: 1095341665, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions:, Model Release: no](/media/2026/05/04/827016/Wide-profimedia-1095341665-400.webp?1777889420)
