Salt Pans

Sea salt production is a centuries-old tradition in Gozo, and this tradition continues, as on the coasts of Gozo is the largest salt-producing area in Malta. Visitors come to see this area in the early morning hours when the small grains of salt sparkle with the reflection of the sun's rays on them. These wonderful salt pans are divided into very beautiful geometric patterns. If you head to the area early, you might be able to see the locals collecting the deposited salt.
