After Leaving Mozia, we were diving along the coast at Marsala when we came upon men raking sea salt into mounds with windmills in the distance. While this was an unexpected sight, it was fascinating to see how sea salt is harvested, the scene was a photographer's dream. You can purchase a small bag of salt with a small terracotta reproduction of the mask of Mozia for one euro.

Is not far from Marsala. Realy worth to check out.The museum itself is also interesting with an audio guide, but i think the most interesting part is the outside salt pond.

We were an extended family of 8 visiting Sicily from NY, and actually stayed in the three rooms here for two nights. Two of the rooms had lovely views that overlooked the windmills and salt marshes. The rooms themselves were a good size, but the bathrooms had small showers. The female staff were extremely accommodating to allergies in the group as far as breakfast was concerned, and the woman who checked us in spoke good English. We viewed a video in English about the salt marshes, and gave us a tour of the windmill. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed due to it being off season so we couldn't do halfboard. During our days we traveled to Segesta, Selinunte, and Erice, and had dinner in Marsala at SLO and in San Leonardo at Saro (5 minutes away). We bought lots of bags of salt in cute little ceramic dishes with spoons as souvenirs. This was such a unique experience, which we would recommend to anyone traveling to this area of Sicily!

I have never before been to a saltery, so this was a new and interesting experience for me.It is one of the main attractions when visiting Marsala. You will need a car to visit in the easiest way. About 15-20 minute drive outside of Marsala, along the water, you'll see three windmills, and then you'll know you're in the right place.The water from the sea is pumped into big basins along the shore. The basins are separated by brick walls, and the water is pumped into them at different times, so that they are not all ready at the same time. The workers walk around and stir the water in the basins, which are at different stages of evaporation. Eventually, once all the water evaporates, all that is left is unprocessed salty goodness.The saltery has a shop where one can buy some plain salts and then some more fancy versions with different other seasonings and flavour combinations. It is free to enter the shop, but there is a fee for the tour (I believe it was 6 or 7 euros)It is also possible to take a tour of the saltery, but we didn't get there in time, and it was too long to wait for the next one. The windmills are spectacular, and it's especially beautiful if you come here during a sunset - their beauty comes out even more in the orange-yellow colours of a sunset.We parked in front of a restaurant directly across from the saltery, which was free. In front of the restaurants are also boats that go to the nearby islands.

We reached the Salt Pans of Mozia outside Marsala almost by default, since we had to pass through them to reach the mole from which small ferry-boats depart for the island of Motya (Isole di Mozia ... see my review) with its ancient Punic ruins just offshore. Salt was, of course, a vital commodity in the ancient world, and so valuable that people were sometimes paid with salt (hence our word 'salary'). In ancient times, people discovered that you could produce salt by filling artificial pools with sea water, and letting the sun and wind evaporate it until only the salt remained. Along this part of the coast of Sicily, that discovery produced a very pure form of salt in large quantities. It's very windy, very sunny, and the water is very unpolluted. So, with the help of windmills to pump more sea water into the artificial pools when needed, these salt pans have been distilling their vital ingredient for centuries. Even today, Italian chefs list Mozia salt from Sicily as a special ingredient in upmarket recipes. So today, you reach the area by driving west from Marsala along the coast for 15 - 20 minutes until you come across the big piles of white salt (sometimes covered with roof tiles to protect and preserve them) and the numerous windmills that mark the Salt Pans. Can't miss them, really, because this whole area is quite flat and the windmills stand out (rather like in Holland). Some people find this interesting ... there's even a salt museum among the windmills. Others find the whole area a roadside curiosity ... of passing interest at best. Note that the windmills and salt pans are not always active. When we were there (in May) the windmills were locked and unmoving despite a strong breeze, and no one appeared to be working in the big old artificial lagoons in which the salt is distilled from seawater. But there certainly were lots of piles of gleaming white salt to be seen along the sea shore, and lots of little bags of Mozia salt to be bought from roadside vendors for 0.50 euros a pop. I bought a few to bring home to my friends who are good cooks. They loved the present, the story that came with it, and the real or imaginary enhanced taste Mozia salt added to their pasta while it lasted.

We particularly enjoy our meal in this quiet location. We had coffee on the terrace overlooking men at work on the salt farm -nice occasion to tell the kids where salt comes from. We strongly recommend a trip there.

The 2 older people loved this - a museum in a windmill and working salt pans that you could walk round. The younger ones found it odd but nevertheless talked about it for days after - I think they actually enjoyed it more than they let on.

Sono stato sia di mattina che nel tardo pomeriggio, il fascino è incredibile in entrambe le situazioni ma al tramonto è un posto da favola.

da ammirare i colori dello stagnone il bianco del sale, il giallo del tufo immersi nel mare, tra mulini e piccole isole e sullo sfondo le tre isole egadi, difficile da spiegare se non si vede.
