Environmental NGOs are urging a halt to road expansions in Akamas National Park due to concerns over legal process adherence and the risk to local biodiversity. Improvements to main forest roads are proceeding without a comprehensive reevaluation, threatening endemic bird species and flora, and bypassing the special ecological assessment report’s recommendations.
Cyprus, especially the salt lake in Larnaca and the small lake Gülseren in Famagusta, is a favorite stopover for tens of thousands of flamingos during their migration between November and March. These lakes provide a perfect habitat for flamingos, making Cyprus a vibrant spectacle of flamingo activity. The flamingos’ vivid plumage against the backdrop of these beautiful locales is a mustsee for any wildlife enthusiast or amateur birdwatcher. In addition to flamingos, Famagusta offers vibrant celebrations, community harmony, and cultural events, making it a diverse and exciting destination for all.
