The project for the implementation of the new Ayia Napa Marina is expected to start in approximately 1-2 years from today. Soon, the consortium which has won the contest for the construction of the project, will engage into discussions with the Government of Cyprus for the signing of the final agreements. Upon signing of these agreements, the plans will have to be deposited which will demonstrate exactly what developments will be included in the Project i.e. yacht berths, construction of villas, houses and other buildings such as restaurants, etc.
Bank guarantees will be required by the Government so that the government can secure the fact that that companies which will undertake to implement the project have the necessary liquidity. As stated by the Mayor of Ayia Napa, ‘the Ayia Napa marina will positively affect this part of Cyprus and that Cyprus will be positively affected and will enjoy multiple benefits since the project will optimize the economic life of the Famagusta area, since new job positions will be opened and will be available and tourism development will be further enhanced’.
Another important project for the area of Ayia Napa is the creation of the Ayia Napa Forest Golf, planned to be implemented in the northern eastern part of Ayia Napa. The Golf course will not however contain a residential area. This project will stretch in 430 acres of land. The piece of land has been granted by the government for this development.
The project is expected to finish in 1-2 years approximately. The fact that there is not going to be any residential development of the land, means that the area will be wholly reserved and used for sports and also, time-consuming procedures for approval of planning permits and other bureaucratic procedures are automatically overcome. In the golf course, there will only be some cafeterias, and probably changing rooms for the athletes.
