$Gozo salt pans are an iconic cultural landmark.\nA salt pan is a shallow reservoir dug out of limestone rock to collect seawater. As the water evaporates, white salt crystals remain. The crystals are then dried and packed into salt pouches.\nThe most famous salt pans are in Xwejni Bay near Marsalforn. These salt pans are known for their picturesque view. These scenic 350 year old salt ponds are arranged in a chequerboard pattern and stretch about 3km along the coast. They are part of the centuries old Gozitan tradition of Sea-Salt production that has been passed down within certain families for many generations.\nXwejni Bay, Marsalforn, Gozo, Malta, Europe.$

'Salinas' : Salt pans of Pedra de Lume, Inside the crater of a long extinct volcano, Midway up the east coast of Island of Sal, Cape Verde (Cabo Verde), off the West coast of Senegal (West Africa). Cape Verde, an Island Republic in the Atlantic. Formerly an overseas territory of Portugal, gained Independence on July 5th, 1975. 434,812 inhabitants (2000 census). Capital: Praia, Santiago Island. Sal Surface : 216 km2. 30km long, 12km large. Approx. 14,792 inhabitants. One of the 3 sandy eastern islands of the archipelago. (Ten islands, Nine inhabited). Also the flattest and the driest of all Cape Verde islands. No ground water founded. All water supplies are brought by boat on containers from Praia or elsewhere. Sal Island has been discovered circa 1460 by Portuguese and named after the Salt Laguna founded in the South and at 'Pedra de Lume', the crater of an extinct volcano. Salt export business exploited from early 19th century attracted many newcomers and brought a relative prosperity till its decline in the first half of the 20th century. By 1985, the salinas ceased all operations. In 1990, there were still 700 residents in Pedra de Lume. Unfortunately, the economy of the town only offers a handful of job opportunities, so the rest had to migrate to other parts of Sal or abroad. The site has now been turned into a resort.
