Six passengers suffered injuries after a tour boat crashed into some concrete blocks just off Zakynthos Island in Greece in the early evening (local time) of Monday, August 17.

The accident occurred as the vessel was returning to the Port of Agios Nikolaos in Crete with 24 passengers and two crewmembers on board.

The vessel was able to reach Agios Nikolaos under her own power. The Hellenic Coast Guard said that, upon the vessel's arrival, two of the injured passengers were brought to hospital via ambulance while the remaining four individuals secured their own means of transport to seek treatment.
