The turtles of the species "Trachemys scripta" (with a red dot on the neck) come from the pet trade and pose a threat to the local ecosystem (haniotika-nea.gr/apiles-gia-to-ikosistima/)

Very beautiful lake with crystal clear water. Ideal for children, you can walk in about 50m and the water is only up to your waist. There are turtles at the back of the lake.
The water temperature is very pleasant even in June due to its flat banks.
