The project will be realized in two stages. In the next 1.5 years 400 apartments will be built on 85,000 sqm near Kaliakra cape at the Black sea.

The region offers an ecologically clean environment. The Green coast will be equipped with a helicopter platform, spa centre and a hotel for 200–250 persons. Some 250 jobs in the service sector are expected to be created there.
