Further up the coast at Nin, home to the world’s smallest cathedral, a similar salt story was taking place, albeit with a different course after the Venetians took control of it and then shut it down. The tradition continued however, and the Nin salt works are surely in one of the world’s healthiest environments, in a lagoon surrounded by no less than five national parks. As with Ston, the salt is harvested by hand after a five-stage process. Hand-picked sea salt has many healthy properties contained therein, including iodine, bromine and potassium. It should be noted that this hand-picked salt is also known as ‘flower of salt’, (also by the French ‘fleur de sel’) because these crystals resemble flower petals. You can admire those and many other interesting salt exibits in the Nin salt museum in between enjoying the stunning town of Nin, which is like a museum for itself.
