LONG SALT LAKE. AL WATBA. Abu Dhabi

Al Wathba Long Salt Lake
Now this is one of the most amazing sights you will ever see in Abu Dhabi and its just up the road form the Fossil Dunes.Just off the road, on both sides are these huge man made channels filled with emerald green water completely encrusted in salt that almost looks like a layer of snow along the waters edges.How these salt formations came about in a man made trench is a mystery, they would have taken eons to form, the thought is that they were present below the sands and when the channel was dug and filled with water the sand around them washed away leaving these unique salt mushrooms exposed.Whatever is the history this is a truly spectacular sight and is highly fragile so if you visit take care as not to damage this delicate ecosystem.
