The installation of canteens, umbrellas, and sunbeds on the famous protected beaches of Pori and Italida in Koufonisia has been halted following protests from island residents and local businesses.
In a significant decision, the Greek government has suspended the granting of permits for the installation of canteens, umbrellas, and sunbeds on the protected beaches of Pori and Italida on the island of Koufonisia. This move comes after a coordinated effort by local residents and the municipality to oppose the commercial exploitation of these renowned beaches. They raised concerns about the potential damage to the sensitive ecosystems and natural beauty of these areas, which are vital for both local identity and tourism.
