Turkey’s Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) reported a magnitude 3.8 quake in Turkey near Marmaris, Mugla, only 15 minutes ago. The earthquake hit early morning on Wednesday, April 30th, 2025, at 6:39 am local time at a shallow depth of 10. km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
A second report was later issued by the National Observatory of Athens (NOA), which listed it as a magnitude 3.8 earthquake as well. Other agencies reporting the same quake include the Kandilli Oservatory and Earthquake Research Institute in Istanbul (KOERI-RETMC) at magnitude 3.7, The Seismological Laboratory of the University of Athens (UOA) at magnitude 3.8, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) at magnitude 4.1, The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Geophysical Lab. (AUTH) at magnitude 3.5, and the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake at magnitude 3.7.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Rhodes (pop. 56,100) located 14 km from the epicenter.
