Description

The southern part of Karpathos is not a generally good for birding, in Amopi snorkeling is rather the quality. Despite this, a walk up the hills can be rewarded with Μαυροτσιροβάκος , Κοκκινοκεφαλάς , Σκορταλλός , Ασπροκωλίνα and Νησιώτικη Πέρδικα. And from the highest spot there is a great view over the bay. When in Amopi it can also be worth looking for Αρτέμης, Αρτέμης (diomedea).
