A strong earthquake off a western Greek tourist island early Friday morning was felt as far away as Athens, but no major damage or injuries were immediately reported.
The main harbor for the island of Zakynthos in the Ionian Sea was damaged though it was still functional, civil protection agency press spokesman Spyros Georgiou said.
Images from the harbour showed cracked and warped pavement near moored boats.
Power was lost in the island capital and main town, also called Zakynthos, but no major damage was reported there.
"We're checking out the villages on the island, where there are several older buildings," he told The Associated Press.
"The lack of electricity is a problem, but technicians are trying to restore power."
