Xwejni Salt Pans

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

These terracing species are relatively common in the Maltese archipelago, no less fascinating for this.
I recommend getting up early in the morning to see the small shadows created by the transverse light and to take advantage of the cool, the whole route is an exposed area and the sun beats down on the island!
You can get there with a 20/30 min walk along the seafront from Marsalforn.

Gozo Salt Pans

Highlight • Structure

Hard to imagine in October that the salt is "harvested" here all summer long. Nothing more to see of that, because everything has already been removed. I think it was May to August.
