    Butterfly Valley, a canyon located at the base of Babadag (1970m) (Ancient Kragon Mountain) which is protected by the World Heritage Foundation. The canyon walls are 350 - 400m high, and the triangular floor of the Valley is just 10ha. At the back of the Valley, the 60m high waterfall runs from the top down through a canopy of trees which shelter an abundance of unique Butterfly species. The Waterfall trails out onto the western facing, white pebbled beach into the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean. During the day 35 different species of Butterflies can be seen throughout the Valley, and at night another 35 also make this their home. The most unique of these being the Tiger Butterfly (EUPLAGIA QUADRIPUNCTARI A ) among others, such as the Danaus Cripsipusun, Limentis reducta, Utetheisa pulchella, Melitaea Sp, Papilio Machaon and many more. World renowned Butterfly Valley now presents you the underwater structure and living creatures of its own as well as its nature and butterflies.
