Mediterranean Coast Day is celebrated every year on 25 September by the countries of the Mediterranean and the European Union.

To mark this year’s celebration, the “Akti” Centre for Studies and Research, with the support of the Municipality of Geroskipou, organised a clean-up of the coast and seabed at the Geroskipou Municipal Beach on 24 September, in the presence of the Minister of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, Mr Costas Kadis.

Mediterranean Coast Day is an awareness campaign that aims to highlight the value of the coast, the environmental issues affecting it, and its interaction with human activities.
