The terminal will replace today's temporary facilities provided just after the Turkish invasion when the main port at that time1974 (Famagusta) became inactive.
The new terminal will provide modern check in facilities as well as Travel Value Shops and restaurants with nice sea view. It will aslo provide luggage reclaiming facilities as well as plenty of parking space for buses, taxis and cars.
The designer of the scheme said that, when finished, the building will look like a ship with typical partholes and wooden decks.

(Just connecting to the Limassol-boulevard !!)Maybe also a newer, better, free shuttle service. Plus a hop on/hop off bus. And the shops open on wednesday !Henri.
Hi there
I totally agree with you.The good news is that except from the new terminal at Limassol port, the area of the old port (now fishing port) is going to be regenerated in near future.A new seaside road (pedestrian, bicycle and cars) will connect the two ports.Along the new road is the place of the new marina which is going on site (start building) in January.
For people who have been to Limassol, the old port regeneration covers the port, the surounding area as well as the old Castle area.
All works are expected to finish by 2007.
