Abstract

Marine spatial planning in Greece has only recently been put on the public policy agenda, although it was formally adopted in 2018. The paper overviews critical aspects of marine spatial planning in Greece focusing on the drafting of the first Marine Spatial Framework (MSF) for the North Aegean Marine Spatial Unit (MSU1). We elaborate on the methodology followed for drafting the MSF for MSU1 and present key elements of its fields of action, spatial guidelines and regulations. The potential and limitations of the MSF as a tool that expands spatial planning from land to sea are discussed.
