Pedra de Lume Salt Crater
Sal Island, Cabo Verde
Pedra de Lume Salt Crater is a unique natural and historical attraction on Sal Island in Cabo Verde, located inside the crater of an extinct volcano.
The site is famous for its highly saline lake, where the salt concentration is so high that visitors can easily float on the water, similar to the Dead Sea. Salt mining began here in the 19th century and played an important role in the island’s economy, with remnants of the old mining infrastructure still visible today.
Surrounded by dramatic volcanic landscapes, the crater offers a fascinating combination of natural beauty, geological significance, and cultural history, making it one of Cabo Verde’s most distinctive landmarks.
