Between Reqqa point and Qbajjar Bay near Marsalforn there exists until today a lot of salt works. In the artifical manfactured basins the sea water evaporates and the salt is harvested per manual work. The profit is not really a big amount. Today the Gozitanian salt is not be exported. It is only sold as a souvenir of this very nice little island.
