Description
Just west of Vatera, the headland of Agios Fokas is located, and this is a good spot to look for migrants and seabirds. Find a nice spot with some view to the sky and scan for migrating herons, egrets, storks and raptors. Above the sea, flocks of Stormskrofa can be spotted, and with a bit of luck you can find Urðaskrofa (diomedea) within these flocks too.
The wooded areas on the headland are great for several breeding species, like Fauskspæta, Grámeisa and Hjálmsöngvari.

Access
You can access the area by driving along the road, and parking the car near or in the harbour. You can search the area on foot. NOTE: there's an army camp near-by, so don't scan with your binoculars or take photographs of this base.
