The Foreign Office has issued a warning (Image: Getty) For those setting off for a Greek getaway, the Foreign Office has issued a series of reminders from passport regulations to potential criminal activities to be wary of. Among these warnings is a specific note for all tourists to tread with caution when taking photos. According to government advisories, certain zones in Greece are strictly off-limits for photography.

And ignoring this could lead to arrests and even court actions for offenders. The warning, which comes under the ' using cameras or approaching sensitive locations ' section says: "It is illegal to approach or take photos or videos of military installations, vehicles or buildings." It adds: "The authorities will arrest and possibly prosecute anyone doing so.



Border areas are also militarily sensitive. If you visit such areas, do not take photos or videos." function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
