Voulismeni is a near circular in the centre of the town of Agios Nikolaos on the Greek island of Crete. Known locally simply as 'the lake' it is one of the principal attractions in the town, yet few residents understand how it formed or why it's here. What most local people believe they know about the lake is based on misinformation, half-truths, and legends.
This book is the true story of how the lake was formed and why it was formed here. It's based on evidence that can be seen at the surface today, on a recent and detailed underwater survey of the lake, and on what is already known about the general geology of this part of Crete.
