Just outside Thrapsano on the road north to Apostoli is Livada Lake, a preserved wetland with a rather neglected and undervisited birdwatching lookout and a picnic area. The local bird population includes little egrets, wood sandpipers, red-rumped swallows and whiskered terns. It is said that the lake has doubled in size over time as potters have extracted clay from the lakebed.
