The opening of the new Marina at Pedi in Symi took place on 18 September 2021, in the presence of the Deputy Minister of Development Mr Nikos Papathanasis, the Mayor of Symi Mr Eleftherios Papakalodoukas, the Parliamentary Secretary of Health Ms Zoe Rapti, the Secretary General of Tourism Policy & Development Ms Vicky Loizou , the former EU Commissioner Mr Dimitris Avramopoulos, the former Parliamentary Secretary of National Defence Mr Alkiviadis Stefanis, the Dodecanese MPs Mr Vassilis Ypsilantis, Mr Yiannis Pappas and Ms Mika Iatridi, as well as many other invited official guests.
The attendees had the opportunity to take a tour of the new Marina at the Pedi location in Symi, which has the capacity of 50 berths for vessels with a total length of 40 metres and integrated services, such as refuelling, water supply, electricity and internet access.
The Chairperson of the Pedi Marina Mr Vassilios Politis stated in this regard: “Today, the vision to create a state-of-the-art, hospitable and perfect marina that will be a jewel for the wider area, begins to become a reality. Moreover, it is important that it is an investment that will contribute to upgrading our country’s tourism product that is being made by a Greek company in the midst of a particularly critical period for both Greek tourism and the Greek economy.
It is a model Marina that was envisioned by MSI HELLAS, which has been operating in a wide range of services for over a decade in the sector of Port Security, and by FYLY YACHTING that has been active in the field of maritime tourism and the chartering of recreation vessels since 1989, which became a reality with the local social acceptance of the project, by contributing to the upgrading of the remote island of Symi, the economic and social development of the region and the maritime tourism product of Greece.
