Currently, coastal fishermen do not have the opportunity to access comfortably out to sea and lower their boats into the water. After the implementation of the construction stage of the fishing infrastructure, they will be able to participate in fishing in a more convenient and safe way, using the modern equipment necessary for fishermen.

We hope that funds will be found for these necessary works, otherwise, the construction of the port would no longer make sense.
