Strunjan Salina, Salt production facility in Piran Municipality, Slovenia.
The Strunjan Salina extends along the Adriatic coastline, featuring traditional salt basins and production facilities within a protected natural environment.
Salt harvesting at Strunjan dates back several centuries, when the Venetian Republic controlled the region and established systematic salt production methods.
The salt workers maintain traditional harvesting techniques passed down through generations, contributing to the preservation of Slovenia's maritime heritage.
Visitors can access the salina through marked paths from Strunjan village, with guided tours available from April through October.
The salt pans create a specialized habitat where halophytic plants thrive and numerous bird species nest in the shallow water basins.
