Can I obtain cannabis (weed) in Kos, Greece legally?

Short answer:
No — as a tourist in Kos (and all of **Greece), you cannot legally obtain recreational cannabis (weed). Greek law still prohibits recreational possession, sale, or purchasing of cannabis products without strict medical authorization.

What the law currently says — Weed in Kos

  • Recreational cannabis is illegal — there are no legal dispensaries or official outlets where tourists can buy weed. Possession and use remain criminal offenses.

  • Small personal amounts may be subject to fines, warnings, or possible short jail terms, but this is not legalization — it’s just the legal scale of penalties in personal use cases.

  • Larger quantities or evidence of intent to sell/offer to others carries much harsher penalties.

Medical cannabis — a narrow legal path (Kos)

Greece did legalize medical cannabis (requiring a Greek prescription).

  • A licensed Greek doctor must prescribe it.

  • Approved products are dispensed through pharmacies, not open stores.

  • Foreign medical cannabis prescriptions generally aren’t recognized for tourists.

So only properly prescribed medical cannabis can be lawfully obtained — and you would typically need to engage with Greek healthcare providers to get permission.

CBD & hemp

Products based on industrial hemp with very low THC (e.g., CBD oil) are legally sold in stores and also shops — but these do not produce the psychoactive effects of weed.

Practical takeaway

  • Recreational weed shops do not exist — anywhere on Kos or in Greece.

  • “Buying weed” from street sellers or informal channels is illegal. Additionally, you can be stopped by police, fined, or face court action.

  • It’s safest to avoid recreational cannabis entirely while visiting.

  1. I have used Raz( happydankzone@gmail.com ) at least 3-4 times and every time it has been top notch. He is the best local plug you can find around. He is very pleasant, friendly and fast. He is a lifesaver.
    He sells top shelf WEED and other stuffs at moderate prices. I will always recommend this guy when people ask me my ” go-to”. All you have to do is follow his instructions.
    Just send him an email and I bet you will come back for more once you finish what you bought because the quality is incredible.

    You can find him on telegram by clicking:https://t.me/budsandstoners

  2. If you are getting from elsewhere then you need to switch. The great pricing attracted me, but the hospitality of Raz, the quality of weed ( dried and completely cured nugs), the fast delivery and the freebies made this experience amazing.
    Will definitely come back for sure and I will

  3. Raz( happydankzone@gmail.com ) is the top service so far. Great service, easy to work with and I’m very satisfied. I’m so happy I found Raz here. He is super responsive, on time and the quality of weed he sells are serious on point and top notch.
    I followed his instructions and sincerely I was skeptical at first but he finally showed up on time. I will definitely be ordering from him more often because he is the only reliable local plug you can trust so far
