Hellenic Ports Association, Through the Creation of Clustering Cruise Ports, Under the Name GREEK CRUISE Following the light of Apollo ...cruising Greece! www.greekcruise.gr Cover_ELIME_EN_2019.indd 2-3 08/05/2019 10:45 Cover_ELIME_EN_2019.indd 4-5 08/05/2019 10:45 The sea was, is and always will be a source of life and devel- opment for our country. It is the same for the Greek cruise industry which now joins forces under an ambitious new ini- tiative of the Hellenic Ports Association, through the creation of clustering cruise ports, under the name GREEK CRUISE. The purpose of the creation of such clustering is the coopera- tion for the coordinated promotion of Greek cruise ports, so that our country can be organized to communicate with the overseas ports - receptors of cruise. This is an outward-coordinated movement in which at the first stage includes 3 actions: the creation of a logo and identity for all Greek cruise ports, the creation of a strong, utilitarian and interactive website in order to promote the ports and the creation of the document that you are holding in your hands, in which both the ports and their technical characteristics are presented, as well as the visit able areas around them. These actions are addressed to the global tourist audience by means of a simple, clear and simultaneously dynamic ap- proach to the emergence of port capabilities of our country. It is the first time that the general public has the opportunity to learn of the aggregate capabilities of the Greek Cruise which is absolutely competitive and dynamic, and we all have to high- light its characteristics. Simultaneously, the new clustering, the first phase of which www.greekcruise.gr involves the 25 ports of cruise destination from the members of the Hellenic Ports Association, will strengthen the coopera- tion between the ports. We would like to invite you to explore the Greek ports through the pages of the Greek Cruise.

Heraklion offers countless choices for cruise passengers in town or outside it. The most important sights are the archaeological sites Knossos and Phaistos. The ancient city of Knossos, 5 kilometers from the capital, was the center of the Minoan civilization and includes the largest Minoan palace of the period 2000 - 1400 BC. The ruins of the city cover an area of 20.000 m2 and consist of the ancient city with palace, the small palace, the two-storey royal mansion and the royal tomb. In the same location the Stratigraphic Museum, showing collections of findings of Knossos, can be found. In the ancient city of Phaistos, 60 kilometers southwest of Heraklion, there is a similar palace, with that of Knossos, but it is less complex and easier to browse. The complex was built on a steep hill and it has an area of 8.400 m2. It was the religious and economic center in the Minoan era. The municipality of Heraklion has many more archeological sites such as Malia, Gortys and Tylissos. In the city there are many monuments that are of interest, such as the fortress Koules, the Loggia, the fountain Morosini, Bebo and Priuli and the Venetian walls surrounding the city. There are also many museums, such as the Archaeological, the Historical and the Ecclesiastical with exhibits from the Cretan tradition and the Minoan ruins. And of course, no visitor should omit tasting the unique local cuisine such as the “maleviziotiko” wine, the vinegar sausage, “chohlious boubouristous”, “kaltsounia”, “dako”, stuffed vine leaves, meat pie, rabbit stew, grilled trout and salmon, fish and seafood.

  • DESERTMED a Project About the Deserted Islands of the Mediterranean
    DESERTMED A project about the deserted islands of the Mediterranean The islands, and all the more so the deserted island, is an extremely poor or weak notion from the point of view of geography. This is to it’s credit. The range of islands has no objective unity, and deserted islands have even less. The deserted island may indeed have extremely poor soil. Deserted, the is- land may be a desert, but not necessarily. The real desert is uninhabited only insofar as it presents no conditions that by rights would make life possible, weather vegetable, animal, or human. On the contrary, the lack of inhabitants on the deserted island is a pure fact due to the circumstance, in other words, the island’s surroundings. The island is what the sea surrounds. What is de- serted is the ocean around it. It is by virtue of circumstance, for other reasons that the principle on which the island depends, that the ships pass in the distance and never come ashore.“ (from: Gilles Deleuze, Desert Island and Other Texts, Semiotext(e),Los Angeles, 2004) DESERTMED A project about the deserted islands of the Mediterranean Desertmed is an ongoing interdisciplina- land use, according to which the islands ry research project.

  • A Qualitative Study of the Competitiveness of the Port of Thessaloniki
    Erasmus University Rotterdam MSc in Maritime Economics and Logistics 2019/2020 A qualitative study of the competitiveness of the port of Thessaloniki By Tsioukanaras Paraskevas Copyright Tsioukanaras Paraskevas 1 Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest appreciation and love to my parents and my brother who did not only financed my studies but underpinned me mentally throughout the whole year and inspired me to keep on trying on pursuing a career in the maritime industry. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, professor Elvira Haezendonck who entrusted me to carry out this study and facilitated me in the process of making it. I would also like to thank the MEL office and the professors of the whole program for their help during my studies. I would like to acknowledge the help of many of my fellow students with whom we spent this year and worked hard during all the academical year. Special thanks to Ioanna Christodoulou, Prithvin Leonard, Elisabeth Mathisen, Nikolas Pantagias and Alex Karalis should be attributed. Last but not least, i am extremely grateful to all the experts who participated in my study by giving out in-person interviews and contributing substantially to the current qualitative research. 2 Abstract Nowadays ports are facing a fast-changing environment which imposes many alterations to their functions. As ports are trying to adopt to these circumstances, they search for ways that can enhance their competitiveness so as to get ahead of competition. The current paper puts the second biggest port of Greece, namely the port of Thessaloniki, under scope and efforts to find out how its competitiveness can increase.

This is a cultural trip of Greece’s major archaeological sites, combining coastal areas in the Peloponnese Peninsula with several mountainous areas and villages in Greece. Beautiful landscapes, incredible history and culture are the highlights of this tour. A fair amount of travelling (by minibus) is involved, ranging from 2 to 4 hours per day, well balanced though between sightseeing en route, visiting key sites, lunch breaks and some free time, usually upon arrival at each day’s destination.
