About
Nature Reserve Area - Lounge Cafe. Every year in the summer months, swarms of butterflies come and settle in this small oasis situated on southwest part of the island. Sitting on the leaves or trunks, hundreds of them rest during the day and fly during the night. Panaxia Quadripunctaria is the name of this nocturnal moth that is attracted to this area from June to September. Visitors are kindly asked to be quiet and not disturb them as it would result in loosing their energy. After your walk, you can enjoy a coffee on those hot summer days surrounded by a light breeze. A playground is also an option for our little friends. You are welcome to visit, have a walk & witness this rare phenomenon.
