According to the latest news from our reporter in Bozburun, the opening actually happened on April 16. 

There was a very nice opening ceremony with many locals, officials, politicians and Gulet owners.

Among the distiguished guest, our local reporter Atila recognised the Mayor of Symi island.

The Mayor of Symi also was invited to Selimiye for lunch.  We are happy that our greek guests had the opportunity to visit the two most beautiful villages on the peninsula.

Everybody are now very happy as this most probably will boost tourism and the number of yachts visiting Bozburun, since the village now is an official port of entry/exit.

Rumours has it that there will be a regular boat service between Symi and Bozburun every Tuesday, making it possible for Greek citizens and tourists at Symi to visit the weekly market in Bozburun.

Photos of the celebration can be seen at the SymiGreece blog: http://www.symigreece.com/page/1124.htm
