Can I hire a Quad or a moped?
You can hire out Mopeds and Quads, however there is no need to hire them as everything is within walking distance.
No amount of Travel Insurance will protect you if you crash or smash the Moped or Quad. The hire shops will charge you around 4,000 Pounds to replace the Quad or Moped.
Your reps will advise you against hiring these out. There have been many accidents and some deaths in Malia in the last few years.
THE LAW:
Failure to wear a crash helmet might invalidate your travel insurance if you are involved in an accident. If you intend to hire a moped you should be aware that they would require a valid driving licence with at least category A1 - 'light motorcycle` for this purpose. Category P, which is valid in the UK for driving mopeds up to 50cc is not valid in Greece.
Greek law requires you to wear a crash helmet on a scooter, moped or motorcycle. Quad bike riders require a full-face helmet (or non-full-face helmet plus goggles) under Greek law.
Road insurance and a motorcycle licence are also mandatory.
