Salinas de Rio Maior

Salinas de Rio Maior is a unique inland salt pan attraction where spring water flows over a 200 million-year-old underground salt deposit. The site features hand-worked salt pans surrounded by picturesque historic wooden huts.

Commenters warmly validate the remarkable high salinity of the salt pans that allows for traditional harvesting. Many viewers also enthusiastically recommend Portuguese grilled chicken (frango assado), sharing fond memories of home-cooked meals.
