Alonissos Two-Meter Snake Surprises Beach Bar Visitors
Two-Meter Snake Surprises Visitors at Alonissos Beach Bar
Visitors at a beach bar on the island of Alonissos were surprised to find a two-meter-long snake moving among them while they were having coffee. The snake appeared on the trunk of an olive tree near the tables, but the guests did not seem alarmed, and some may not have noticed it at all.
A user from a reptiles and amphibians page in Greece and Cyprus recorded a video of the snake. Experts disagreed on its species, debating whether it was a tree snake or another type of snake.
The common snake is one of the largest snakes in Greece and Europe. It is active during the day and widely found on Alonissos. Experts confirmed that the snake is non-venomous and harmless to humans, making the encounter unusual and amusing rather than frightening.
