      The Salinas de Cabo de Gata stretch out at the foot of the mountains, parallel to the coastline.

      The only thing that separates the salt flats from the beach is a barrier of dunes. Through a system of canals that take advantage of the unevenness in relation to sea level, the water passes through the different types of ponds for salt production. An interesting area.

        Depending on the time of year you come, they will be more or less full of water and life.
        Without a doubt, it is a beautiful place and highly recommended. Of course, watch out for the rains and sticky puddles.
