| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The only still operating commercial salt works on the island of Lanzarote.
"Laid out in a geometric pattern, with each of the saltpans showing a different colour, depending on the amount of water in it, the Salinas strike you as an intentionally created, enormous piece of art – despite their obvious functional purpose."
There are several places where you have an overview of the salinas. As they are located in the west part of the island, especially in the dusk with the sun setting in the sea, very nice motives can be found. |
