Question 1

What is the emergency number in Greece?

Accepted Answer

Dial 112 for any emergency in Greece — it connects you to police, ambulance, and fire services and works from any phone, even without a local SIM card. In West Mani, you can also reach GAIA Direct at +30 27210 79199 for local incidents.

Question 2

Why call GAIA instead of 112 in West Mani?

Accepted Answer

West Mani is roughly one hour from the nearest fire station or hospital. GAIA's volunteer team is based locally in Stoupa and can often respond faster to fires, traffic accidents, and rescue situations. For life-threatening emergencies, always call 112 first.

Question 3

What areas does GAIA cover?

Accepted Answer

GAIA responds to incidents across West Mani, including Stoupa, Kardamyli, Agios Nikolaos, and the surrounding coastal and mountain villages of the Messenian Gulf.
