It&#8217;s an artificial lake with an area of 450 acres, originally a marsh\/swamp fed by springs, and rivers from the White Mountains, built in 1923 by the Greek Electricity Supply Company in 1923 for the electrification of Chania.&nbsp; It was given to the local community in 2009 , and since protected (Natura 2000) by international treaties.&nbsp; Now it&#8217;s an important aquatic habitat, with over 200 bird species recorded, and sited on routes of bird migration between Africa and Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img

From Chania, take the main road to Omalos, and soon after passing Agia Prison, before reaching Agia village, turn right at a sign indicating &#8216;Lake Cafe&#8217;, and follow minor roads to park here.&nbsp; Or, from Paleochora, leave the National Road at the Platanias interchange, head inland towards Vrisses, then drive through Patelari and Kirtomados to the cafe overlooking the

you might be lucky enough, with binoculars, to spot kingfishers, reed\/marsh warblers, flycatchers and other more elusive small birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are picnic tables below tall eucalyptus trees, beyond which the walkway continues around the lake&#8217;s south side, with the water now some distance away.&nbsp; When this ends, a path leads left, but ends in undergrowth.&nbsp; Either reverse your route, or, to complete the circuit, turn right to meet a surfaced road, turn left for 450m to a junction, then 450m left again to the Lake Cafe, a rather uninteresting walk and with the lake out of sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the enthusiastic bird-watcher, the best time to visit is in March or October, and preferably early morning or towards dusk, as migrants pass through and prepare\/recover from long journies.&nbsp; Swallows, swifts and martins are in abundance, and, although it&#8217;s probably not their habitat, if you&#8217;re fortunate enough to see brilliantly coloured bee eaters, hoopoe and golden oriole, the sightings will remain with you for a very long time.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t.huge-it-share-buttons {\n\t\t\t\tborder:0px solid
