Tourist deaths and missing cases on Greek islands raise safety worries.

A Dutch tourist was found dead on the Greek island of Samos. This is just one of many recent cases where tourists have died or disappeared in Greece.

Many of these cases involve tourists going on hikes in extreme heat. For example, a British TV host was found dead on the island of Symi after going on a difficult hike.

Authorities are still searching for several missing tourists, including two French women on the island of Sikinos. An American tourist is also missing on the island of Mathraki, but strong winds have hindered search efforts.

On the island of Amorgos, the search continues for a retired Los Angeles County Deputy Sheriff who went missing during a solo hike. Amorgos, a popular tourist destination, is known for its rocky terrain.

Some media reports have highlighted the need to warn tourists about the dangers of hiking in extreme heat. While temperatures in Greece have dropped slightly, they are expected to rise again soon.
