This past Sunday (22nd June 2014) the boat Laboe was sunk, 2km off the coast of Yeroskipou Plaz, as part of the efforts to create artificial reefs around the island of Cyprus that will replenish the fish stock and increase revenues from diving tourism. Ms Xenia Loizidou, representing on this occasion the Cyprus Tourism Organisation, addressed the audience and welcomed initiatives that aim to promote sustainable blue development in Cyprus, while at the same time emphasising the importance to create a holistic, integrated and well-defined strategy for managing and promoting such initiatives.DSC01804
