Salt Pans at Marsalforn

Categories & Tags: Beaches
An intricate network of salt pans stretches across the coastal rock in this striking view from Marsalforn, Gozo. The geometric basins, shaped by hand and etched into the limestone, glisten under the sunlight as sea water slowly evaporates to yield its treasured salt. The surrounding sea and cliffs in the background add a timeless Mediterranean charm to this centuries-old tradition.
