Boat & Sea Expo. The Ultimate Marine Lifestyle Event of the Year
The first Boat & Sea Expo concluded with outstanding success and impressive attendance, held from May 8–10 at the iconic Ayia Napa Marina.
The event was organized by Dacor Advertising and Media Ltd, a company specialized in the organization of major events, in collaboration with Ayia Napa Marina, delivering a high-profile exhibition that combined the sea, yachting, entertainment, and modern lifestyle.
Over three days, the event attracted thousands of visitors, industry professionals, sea enthusiasts, and families, creating a unique experience widely described as a true “Yachting Festival” for all ages.
The exhibition brought together leading companies from the maritime, yachting, and watersports sectors, along with thousands of visitors who had the opportunity to discover up close new technologies, boat models, equipment, and services related to the sea and marine tourism.
Commercial interest exceeded all expectations, with dozens of exhibitors and brands presenting modern vessels, yachting services and marine solutions, recreational fishing equipment, sea accessories, and luxury cars that drew strong attention from visitors.
A particularly strong dimension of the event was the B2B and B2C meetings, which created dynamic networking opportunities, new partnerships, and valuable business connections for both the marine industry and broader market sectors.
Throughout the exhibition, product presentations, interactive activities, and special events were organized, offering a unique experience for both children and adults.
At the same time, Boat & Sea Expo evolved into a complete entertainment and lifestyle destination, featuring a rich program of artistic and musical performances, live shows, and family-friendly activities, creating a vibrant seaside atmosphere.
From its very first edition, Boat & Sea Expo confirmed its strong position as a key meeting point for Cyprus’ maritime and marine community, contributing to the sector’s development and strengthening the public’s connection with the sea.
The organizers extend their sincere gratitude to all sponsors, exhibitors, partners, and visitors who supported the event and contributed to its success.
Special thanks are extended to the Minister of Justice and Public Order, Mr. Kostas Fytiris, the Deputy Ministry of Shipping, the Deputy Ministry of Tourism, and the Mayor of Ayia Napa for their valuable support and presence, which significantly contributed to the upgrade of the event and its vision for the future of yachting and marine tourism in Cyprus.
