Guided salt harvesting experience in a traditional salt pan

Step into an active evaporation basin, where seawater naturally transforms into salt, and a delicate crust forms across the surface. Wearing rubber boots, walk across the salt-covered basin and observe the unique structure of the crystals as well as the distinctive features of the saline environment.

Accompanied by an experienced salt harvester, discover the traditional methods used in the salt pans and learn about the processes involved in salt production. During the visit, watch a demonstration of manual harvesting techniques and take part in the activity using the paluneddu, the traditional tool employed for collecting salt.

This immersive experience offers a closer look at the daily work of a salt harvester and reveals how seawater is gradually transformed into salt within a living, working natural environment. It is an opportunity to explore a centuries-old tradition while gaining a deeper understanding of this remarkable landscape.
