Voroklini Lake is one of only seven natural wetlands in Cyprus. Despite its small size, it has a rich birdlife.

During migration (in spring or autumn) or in winter many migratory birds and many species of ducks can be seen. A total of around 200 species have been recorded at the site. Voroklini Lake is also the only site in Cyprus where Pato Colorado nests.
