Greece’s PM unveils visionary Faliro Bay redevelopment

·

Greece’s Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has announced plans for the redevelopment of Faliro Bay, describing it as an “iconic project” that will reconnect Athens with its coastline.

Central to the initiative is Aenaon, a metropolitan park representing continuity and timelessness, set to open in 2028 with funding from the European Union.

The park is envisioned as a Mediterranean landmark, offering public spaces for recreation, sports, cultural events, and sustainable, innovative infrastructure.

“This will be a showcase for the Mediterranean, providing spaces for entertainment, sports, and a connection to nature,” Mitsotakis said.

Attica Regional Governor Nikos Hardalias hailed the project as transformative, emphasising its role in creating a leading destination with sports facilities, swimming areas, and climate-resilient features like advanced drainage systems and green zones to improve the local microclimate.

A collaboration between the Greek government and the EU, the redevelopment aims to set a benchmark for sustainable coastal infrastructure and tourism in the region.
