OUR HOST
It is with great honor and joy that we welcome the International Sea Tourism Festival – ISTF 2025 to Ayia Napa Marina. This flagship event aspires to showcase Cyprus, and particularly the free region of Famagusta, as a point of reference for blue growth, maritime tradition, and the sustainable future of the Mediterranean. ISTF 2025 is not only about tourism and investment; it is an open invitation to all who love and serve the sea: professionals of maritime tourism, academics and researchers, environmental organizations, educational institutions, nautical and cultural associations, as well as local communities.
Our goal is to join forces to promote the protection of the marine environment, strengthen maritime culture and education, cultivate new learning opportunities, and highlight the prospects of sea tourism development at both national and international levels.
Ayia Napa Marina, a pioneering landmark project in Cyprus and the Eastern Mediterranean, is honored to host this major celebration of the sea. It provides a distinguished platform for showcasing the capabilities of maritime professionals, for the exchange of views, and for the creation of avenues of collective action and collaboration.
ISTF 2025 represents a unique occasion for us to convene, to share knowledge and experiences, to inspire and to be inspired, while jointly shaping the future of the blue economy in Cyprus and across the Eastern Mediterranean.
We warmly invite you to share this unique experience with us—honouring our past, protecting our marine environment, and shaping the blue future of our homeland, Cyprus.
