O destinație spectaculoasă din Grecia, cu ape turcoaz și nisip alb, sufocată de turiști. Acces limitat la celebra Laguna Balos

Authorities in Crete are planning to implement a timed access system for Balos Lagoon to protect its fragile ecosystem from tourist overcrowding. The pilot project aims to limit entry to 1,200 visitors every three hours, with a digital platform monitoring real-time visitor numbers. Local officials emphasize the need for government intervention to enforce stricter regulations, as the area is at risk of irreversible environmental degradation. While some tourism operators express concerns about the feasibility of fixed visiting times, others suggest dedicated days for large agencies to manage visitor flow more effectively.
