⚡ Tech packing for Greece: chargers, cables & adapters
Smart tech packing for your trip to Greece saves you time, stress, and money. If you’re packing for the Greek islands, here’s what you’ll actually need: chargers, power adapters, Type-C cables, and powerbanks — so you won’t be hunting for a plug at the kiosk before your ferry.

🔌 Power sockets in Greece & universal adapters
Greece uses type-C and type-F sockets with 240-volt current. If you’re visiting from abroad, you’ll need a reliable travel adapter, not three cheap ones from the airport.
A
universal travel adapter
lets you charge your devices in Greece and beyond,
without carrying a bag full of country-specific plugs.
Choose a solid one with safety certification and stable contact to avoid “hanging” adapters on the wall socket.
🔋 Multi-port chargers and powercubes
When you travel with friends or multiple devices, hotel sockets suddenly feel too few. Especially in small island rooms or old studios, there may only be one plug available.
That’s when a compact
Allocacoc Powercube
saves the day.
It fits easily in your luggage and gives you multiple charging spots for phones and cameras without waiting all night.
Combine it with a multi-USB charger to power everything from one outlet — a true blessing after long ferry rides or flights.
📱 Type-C cables: a good one matters
Don’t underestimate your cable. Cheap ones charge slowly, break easily, and sometimes stop working altogether — which means you’re stuck at 40% battery at the wrong time.
A high-quality
UGreen USB-C cable
— or
this UGreen USB-C option
— supports fast charging and handles daily bending and movement much better than ultra-cheap cables.
Always pack one reliable main cable and a spare backup.
⚡ Powerbanks and quick charge on the go
Even the best plan fails when you’re exploring, taking photos, and moving all day. That’s why a good powerbank is essential — especially if you travel solo or work remotely.
A compact
Xiaomi 22.5W powerbank
keeps your phone alive through long travel days and busy island schedules.
Charge it overnight and start each day fully powered.
Reminder: powerbanks go only in your carry-on bag, not in checked luggage.
🌊 Protect from salt, sand & humidity
Islands are paradise for photos — not for electronics. Salt, sand, and humidity can ruin phones, powerbanks, and chargers if you leave them on beach tables or near the sea.
