At the end of the Manga we will find several salt mills such as the one in Veneziola or the No. 168 that were used to grind salt.

The place is very quiet and ideal for contemplating the splendid views of the sea. Nearby we can visit the Bridge of Laughter that will give us a beautiful picture.

Historic windmills that were used primarily for traditional salt production, but also in agriculture.

In the Mar Menor region, especially in areas such as San Pedro del Pinatar, including Veniziola, there are several historic windmills. These windmills were mainly used for grinding grain and pumping water for irrigation and salt production. The windmills are an important part of the cultural heritage of the Mar Menor region. They are iconic structures that reflect the agricultural and industrial history of the region.
