Fodor's Expert Review Story of Salt

In search of a gift that will capture the pure sun and breeze of the Adriatic? Try visiting this brand-new gift shop–museum run by the Solana Nin Saltworks, a major sea salt manufacturer based near Zadar on the coast. Here you can buy the "salt flower" (cvjet soli), affectionately called the "caviar of salt" for its unique flavor and composition. Spend several minutes taking in the images and implements that pay tribute to the sea salt industry; the mini-museum features several implements from traditional (and modern) salt manufacturing, including salt rakes, transport wagons, and a wooden packing unit.
