Anyone know the exact location of this 500 bedroom resort in relation to the Zakaki marsh hide and Lady's Mile please? I couldn't find much on the Birdlife Cyprus website, and the impact on the nearby Akrotiri Marshes will be horrendous for wildlife when it's completed ( just on draining the surrounding area to control mosquitos ). It's one of the Important Bird Areas on the island, notably for Autumn resting raptor, particularly Red Footed falcons in large numbers. A 1.1 billion€ investment from a far eastern investment group.

Many thanks.
Pat

While I wait for your reply, I think I will have fun on the site playing gambling.

Many thanks.

The concerns about the environmental impact, especially on the important bird areas like the Akrotiri Marshes, are valid. These areas are critical for species such as the Red-Footed Falcons during their migration.
