About

Lake Agia, also known as Lake Ayia (Greek: Λίμνη Αγιάς or Αγυιάς), is an artificial lake on the island of Crete, in Greece. It was created in the early 20th century as part of a hydroelectric power plant which is no longer operational. The lake is now an important habitat for the local flora and fauna and it is part of the Natura 2000 network of protected areas.
