Salinas de Pampatar/Margarita Island

La Salinas in Pampatar is a really impressive landscape due to the shades of various colors that appear or can be seen in them at dawn or sunset; it is worth freezing this spectacular image in a camera.

This place is not marketed, as it is only a magical natural setting to enjoy to the fullest. It is truly striking the mineralization process that alters the color of its waters, ranging from a litmus in shades from crystalline to blue and then goes red to culminate with crystalline white; this happens when it solidifies for use. The salt flats star in the sunset in Pampatar when the sparkles of the sun are reflected in the mirror of its peaceful waters, creating a natural exhibit that is not usual.

There are several kinds of salt flats, and they can be of inland or coastal type, as is the case of the Salinas de Pampatar; it is a panorama characterized by having a flat area, independent of the sea by a narrow line that allows salt water to be grouped in wide areas of the coast called marshes, and when separated by pieces are called eras, which are demarcated by thin lanes that help the movement of vehicles that serve to transfer the mineral in case it is marketed
