Marsaskala salt pans: a local walk at the end of a southern route

The Marsaskala salt pans show a less catalogue-like Malta: flat, local and rhythmic.

It is a quiet photo stop and short walk after UNESCO sites and busy Marsaxlokk.

How to fit it into the day

Add it only if you are already in the south-east. It works before St Thomas Bay or dinner.

Do not drive across the island just for this point. Without context it may feel too small.

Good for travellers who want an ordinary slice of Malta without a crowd.
