Cannabis in Irakleion, Greece: my journey

Hello, cannabis enthusiasts! As you may be aware, cannabis laws and regulations can differ significantly from place to place. Join me as I delve into the world of cannabis in Irakleion. In this post, I will explore the landscape of cannabis laws, regulations, the local community's stance, interactions with law enforcement, comparisons between hash and weed availability, as well as the costs associated with acquiring cannabis in Irakleion.

Just finished my vacation, stayed 2 weeks in Irakleion, and as a heavy weed smoker I can't imagine a vacation without some sativa joint during the day and indica buds with some beer before heading to sleep. Below you will find info on what I found out while searching for tasty non-medical weed in Irakleion.

How to get weed in Irakleion?

I did not need a dealer in Irakleion because I had John, anyway it was interesting for me how gears work in Irakleionin relation to cannabis.

High-level wholesale Irakleion dealers purchase weed and hash on the darknet websites. Usually these sites are about wholesale multi-kilo orders, but some also work with small amounts. So in fact this may be an option #1 for you - under the condition you know how to use darknet features of Tor browser and .onion sites + ready to wait 3-5 days for the delivery. If yes - you may find all the info about darknet websites on thehiddenwiki.com - darknet wikipedia.

If you are the person who doesn't want to wait or you vacation in Irakleion is too short for waiting, only the local dealer can save your time and help with weed. Of course, you can just use the familiar way many people find it to wander around the city looking for a stranger who can offer you a small variety of joints for cash. But I think it's not the best manner to waste your time in Irakleion. In our time almost all sellers work online and use cryptocurrency, so walking around the streets may not bring you any results. Now the way of buying cannabis has become more convenient - you get some contact of a dealer, write to him via messenger, choose what you want to buy, pay via crypto and get the delivery to a hotel or previously discussed place. If you don't know any contact of a dealer just ask some barmans or just use google. One more point you should notice that dealers try not to have a personal meeting with the buyer, so the package of weed is just placed in the previously discussed place and you get the photo and GPS tag of the exact place of your purchase.

I was really surprised because I was totally sure that “cash rules the roost”. But now when you can easily convert cryptocurrency to real cash and this point excludes personal meetings thereby, cash started to lose their positions in the drug business. John also advised me if you are not familiar with the crypto world, just ask your friends. He was totally sure that everyone nowadays has at least one friend who is close to the crypto and likes smoking as well. So you can just ask him to make the transaction for you. It is absolutely safe for both sides.

Local attitude towards weed and cannabis in Irakleion

Although only medical cannabis is allowed in Irakleion, the locals are absolutely ok with the smokers. Local dealers have big cash from the students and tourists, so they are their weed target audiences in Irakleion. You shouldn't allow yourself to smoke anywhere, for example in bars, but nobody is surprised if you get caught smoking weed in a secluded corner of the street.

One more interesting fact from my new friend John - even some cops in Irakleion prefer smoking weed over drinking strong. So as I understood Irakleion is a good place for smokers of marijuana because of the light atmosphere, but all the same the best rule is not to be caught with weed in Irakleion 😉.

We were a little drunk already when John offered a joint of some noname sativa strain, of course I agreed. We were smoking not far from my hotel and it seems I saw other guys doing the same near another cornet 🙂So may say locals are not against weed, I saw this myself.

I liked the weed John shared, not the best one I’ve ever tried, but good enough. So I asked John to share contacts of his dealer, while he refused telling me his dealer works only with an old trusted set of clients. So I simply asked John if he could be my dealer during the nearest days - he agreed. I wish everyone to find his own John in Irakleion🙂

You can not officially purchase marijuana strains with high THC concentration in some coffee shops like in Amsterdam. Medical CBD cannabis may be available for purchase at dispensaries, but a prescription from a doctor is required, and you will never get high with CBD.

In one sports bar I got acquainted with John who moved to Irakleion 3 years ago, so he knows the local drug scene. According to John - despite cannabis being banned according to laws, cops are generally relaxed about weed, sometimes being smokers themselves.

As John told me - for not to be arrested you can carry less than 10g of cannabis or 5g of hash. For the same purpose you should be sane and not use drugs in public places. Cops can just check if you are going to sell marijuana or not and confiscate it.

There are some possibilities that cops could try to get money from you if they catch you with weed in Irakleion. It is not a frequent story, but you should keep in mind that some cops prefer to force you to pay some money for your calmness. But not to propose money first because it can be regarded as a separate crime. So the easiest way is not to be caught with weed in Irakleion 😉.
