RIO MAIOR SALT FLATS

The Rio Maior Salt Flats are located in the heart of the Serras de Aire e Candeeiros Natural Park. These are the only inland salt flats in Portugal, and the only ones that are fully operational in Europe. 

They are considered a wonder of nature, as the ocean is 30 km away. Salt is a trace of the presence of the sea in ancient times. The water, around seven times saltier than sea water, comes from a well, after passing through a rock salt deposit.
