Descripción
The Faros lighthouse lies on the northernmost point of Lesvos, and is completely abandoned. The view from this vantage point over the strait towards Turkey is fantastic. It's a great spot to observe migrating raptors and storks that cross the strait to Lesvos during autumn migration. Common species that can be seen are buzzards (Steppe Buzzard, Busardo Moro), harriers (Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental, Aguilucho Cenizo and Aguilucho Papialbo), Milano Negro, Águila Pescadora, Gavilán Común, Azor Común, and storks (Cigüeña Negra, Cigüeña Blanca).
Over the strait, large flocks of Pardela Mediterránea can be seen. Sometimes Pardela cenicienta mediterránea can be spotted within these flocks. Also keep an eye out for dolphins.
The road towards the lighthouse is great for smaller migrants, like Colirrojo Real, Papamoscas Gris and Curruca Gavilana. Also, large flocks of swallows, martins and swifts tend to hang around this part of the Korakas headland as well.

Accesso
The Faros lighthouse is fairly hard to reach with a "common" vehicle; the track is unpaved, steep, and consists of coarse gravel and rocks. It is adviced to only drive here with an offroad vehicle. You can also park your car at the top of the track and walk down towards the lighthouse.
