The Salt Flats of Es Trenc

Isan't it incredible what this island has to offer?

On a family adventure across the island this week, under the bluest of skies and a warm February sun, we stumbled across mountains of salt just a few miles back from the most southerly tip of the island. 

At the salt flats of Es Trenc, the salt is principally harvested at the end of the summer months for sale and consumption after the traditional evaporation, collection and drying process,

But even in February there are still mountains of salt in abundance and it is well worth the adventure down south whatever time of year, even if just to visit the delightful Flor de Sal d'Es Trenc shop and have a coffee in their sunny courtyard.
