On 9 September 2020, at the “Attikon” multi-purpose venue, the public presentation of the approved study for the project to protect and improve the south-western coasts of the Municipalities of Paphos and Geroskipou took place.

The study was presented by the project consultants, the Joint Venture Dion. Toumazis & Associates – Rogan and Associates S.A.

The study area has a total length of approximately four kilometres and is bounded by the Paphos municipal baths to the west and the Geroskipou tourist beach to the south.

The main objective of the study is to define the strategy for the development of the coastal zone by protecting the shore from erosion and improving the quality of the beach, so that it is compatible with tourism and recreational uses and, above all, provides the safe conditions necessary for bathers to use the coast.

The estimated cost is put at ten (10) million euros and will be shared by the two municipalities, the hoteliers of the area and the state, while the possibility of including it among projects co-financed by European Funds will also be examined.
