An 8-year-old boy was rescued after being swept out to sea on an inflatable float off the coast of Crete on Tuesday, July 14, 2026. The incident occurred around midday at Ligres Beach, in the municipality of Agios Vasileios, according to authorities. Some sources specify the location as Rethymno, while one source mentions Chania.
The alarm was raised when the boy, identified by one source as a German national, was carried away by ocean currents. A large search and rescue operation was launched, involving vessels from the Hellenic Coast Guard and Frontex.
The child was ultimately rescued by a tourist boat, identified by one source as the "Phoenix." He was brought safely to shore and did not require medical attention.
