Safety ashore

Women travelers

Extra caution advised

The advisory reports sexual assaults against foreign visitors, particularly on islands, and warns against accepting lifts from strangers. Plan the return to the ship. Assessment uses country-level government advice; port-specific conditions may differ.

Reviewed 2026-10-25

LGBTQ+ travelers

Routine precautions

UK advice describes legal same-sex activity and protections covering gender identity, with generally more welcoming attitudes in Athens and many islands. Public attitudes vary, especially outside major visitor areas. Editorial assessment based on country-level government guidance, not a measured port-specific incident rate.

Who else is in port?

Port crowding index

100 is average. 150 means 50% more ship passenger capacity than this port’s observed hourly average over the past 30 days; 50 means half the average.

Checking ships in port…

Estimate for tracked catalog ships, based on published passenger capacity, not actual passengers ashore. Port areas are approximate circles around published port coordinates. Only positions reported within an hour at 1 knot or less are counted; ships at anchor may be included. Missing AIS reports and untracked ships can understate crowding. Quiet observed hours count toward the average; collection outages do not.
