Do UK Travelers Need an Adapter?
Yes. UK plugs (Type G – three rectangular pins) won’t fit Greek sockets. Bring a UK to Europe adapter.
Do US Travelers Need an Adapter?
Yes. US plugs (Type A/B – flat prongs) won’t fit Greek sockets. You need a US to Europe adapter.
Voltage note: Greece uses 230V. Most modern electronics (phones, laptops, cameras) are dual-voltage (100-240V) and work fine. Check your device label. Hair dryers and curling irons may need a voltage converter unless they’re dual-voltage.
Voltage Requirements
- Voltage: 230V
- Frequency: 50Hz
Check your device’s label or charger. If it says “100-240V” you only need an adapter. If it says “110V” or “120V” only, you’ll need a voltage converter as well.
Where to Buy Adapters
- Amazon (before travel)
- Electronics stores
- Airport shops
- Greek convenience stores (basic adapters widely available)
Safety Tips
- Check voltage compatibility before plugging in
- Don’t overload outlets with multiple high-power devices
- Inspect adapters for damage before use
