Viewpoint of Salinas de San Pedro

Nice viewpoint over the evaporation basins for the extraction of salt from the seawater and the still working salt factory.

Protected Natural Area: Natural Park Salinas y Arenales de San Pedro del Pinatar. A wetland in the north of the Mar Menor where many birds nest and attracts large flocks of flamingos in the autumn that make their crossing to Africa. Part of the park consists of old salt pans (near San Pedro del Pinatar) that were already exploited in Roman times but are still used today.

It is a unique landscape and worth visiting. Its characteristic pink color and its surroundings make this place a wonderful place for some nice colorful and contrasting photos. You will still be able to appreciate the process of formation and extraction of salt, which is very interesting.
