With the global superyacht fleet growing in number, deliveries are on the rise and sizes increasing. Berths are back in demand and a lack of space in the traditional locations is forcing superyachts to cruise further afield.
Operated and managed by Camper & Nicholsons Marinas, in partnership with Francoudi & Stephanou Marinas, Limassol Marina has stepped in to provide an ideal stop-over or winter berth, conveniently located at the crossroads of three continents, with standards of quality that are redefining the industry in Cyprus as a whole and boosting the island’s image across the waters.
When the superyachts first sailed into the marina back in 2013, Cyprus found a place on the itaineraries of superyachts
Anastasia became the largest vessel to enter a marina on the island her slick 75m claimed olpe position along the south eastern breakwater and changed the dynamic of Limassol’s most ambitious waterfront development for ever.
Of the fifty or so superyachts to have visited or signed long-term berthing agreements with the marina since its official opening four of the largest to have used the services and facilities at what is the only superyacht marina on the island include:
- Nirvana 88.5m
- Madam Gu 99m
- A 119m
- Queen K 72.6m
Arriving after just completing a round the world cruise Captain Christopher Walsh, of the 67.75m Archimedes said, “The entire team was welcoming, professional and enthusiastic. They could not have been more friendly, courteous and helpful. Not only are the staff and facilities first rate, but the surrounding area presented a myriad of safe and wonderful opportunities to experience the fine cuisine, history and natural beauty of Cyprus. Limassol Marina is the perfect place to base any yacht. We eagerly look forward to returning.”
With room for for 650 yachts from 8m to 110m the complex combines luxury apartments and exclusive villas with private berths or direct access to the beach, with an enticing mix of dining and shopping establishments, spa, fitness and cultural facilities. All in the heart of a thriving international city.
