The Cyprus Ports Authority, on the occasion of the resumption of the ferry service between the Port of Limassol and the Port of Piraeus, welcomes the reconnection of Cyprus-Greece by ferry and stresses the importance of the ferry connection between our island state and mainland Greece and, by extension, Europe. At the event held during the first departure of the M/V Daleela, which will operate the ferry line in the presence of the President of the Republic of Cyprus and numerous state and local officials and representatives of the port and tourism community, the Cyprus Ports Authority was represented by the Chairman of the Board of Directors Dr. Antonis St. Stylianou, the Director General of the Authority Mr. Anthimos Christodoulides and the Director of the Port of Limassol Mr. Panagiotis Agathokleous.
"The resumption of the Cyprus-Greece ferry connection is a historic moment for our country. After 21 years of absence, this option is now available to all, which we believe will be embraced by the public, as it offers the possibility, among other things, to transport vehicles, pets, equipment and others. As the Cyprus Ports Authority, we have contributed in a very productive way to the implementation of the planning and procedures for the ferry connection and we congratulate the pioneers of this project who, with tenacity, professionalism and full coordination, created the conditions for the implementation of the connection. We hope that this project will create the conditions that will make it even bigger, with more ferry connections that we are sure will benefit our region."
