Greece has said that pandemic restrictions such as mask-wearing indoors and Covid certificates will be lifted throughout the summer tourism period and authorities will consider reinstating them in September.
Coronavirus infections in Greece have eased in recent weeks, with authorities recording 15,000 infections and 64 deaths yesterday.
Out of a population of 11 million, some 72% are fully vaccinated. Greece's vital summer tourism season typically begins after the Orthodox Easter, which this year falls on 24 April.
Greece is expecting high numbers of visitors this year, with officials predicting revenues reaching 80% of 2019 levels, a record year before the pandemic brought travel to a halt.
