Witness location : Lardos (Greece) (101 km NW from epicenter)

We were sitting on the balcony of our hotel room (hotel on the beach near Lardos, Rhodes island). Then our chairs started to move, and some of us thought at first that someone was pushing these chairs. But in a few seconds it was clear that it's an earthquake. In 30 or so seconds it was gone. I thought that the magnitude was 4, but it seems I was wrong, it was stronger.

Due to the fact that the Earthquake happened in the sea, it was not severe! Waves traveling through the water, get weaker as they travel underneath the sea. No damages, nor injuries are expected by this Earthquake.
