Prompt the Calabria Region the Harbour Authority of Gioia Tauro to program the construction of a terminal cruises in the port of Crotone. In a letter sent to the president of the harbour authority, Giovanni Grimaldi, the vice president of the regional agency, Antonella Stasi, has emphasized that "the port of Crotone is recording an increasing interest by the world of the cruises, indeed - he has remembered - over the last few years has recorded meaningful numbers of landings place that testify the strong potentialities of the crotonese port of call. During 2013 almost five thousand passengers will reach in the city, through ten berthings distributed during the year, and also for the 2014 numbers in increase are previewed".

"The Calabria Region, which convinced of the opportunities offered from this tourist segment - it has continued Antonella Stasi - is supporting the promotion of Crotone and others three ports calabrians through a marketing plan whom it sees involved between the other institutions also the Harbour Authority of Gioia Tauro, and yields of these efforts will see the light in the next few years. In the light of all this, the port of Crotone can therefore aim at to a place of relief in the market of the cruises, for which I consider must head to a greater infrastructuring that allows to distribute suitable services of acceptance regarding the demanded standards. It would be therefore favorable, so as many times over discussed and shared that the agency from presided she, in continuing its action of support to the development of the crotonese port of call, inserts in the programs the creation of an infrastructure to use after passenger terminal".

"Waiting for the definition of the Portuale Town development plan - the vice president of the Region to Giovanni Grimaldi has suggested in the letter - it could be proceeded to the realization of manufacturing that it answers to the requirements of flexibility and facility of future repositionings. On the base of the suggestions reached from the operators of the field, the structure would go localized on the current dock of Riva, to the maximum distance of 20 meters from the edge of the pier, this in order to facilitate the operations of transit of the passengers. The surface total that suitable currency to the current necessities is of about 600 square metres, the whose inside would go characterized a area income, destined one to the passage of the crocieristi as soon as come down from the ship in pause; a central area. in which placing services to support as controls, reception desk, bar, point information, etc and an area shunting, for the climb on the buses in departure from the dock".

"The realization of this structure - it has concluded Antonella Stasi - would be of important aid to the operators engaged in the operations of transit of the current fleeting traffics, and could represent the premise in order to candidate Crotone to home port for the boarding/disembarkation of the cruise ships".
