Here, you can seamlessly blend various experiences encompassing sports activities, coastal explorations, photography, and gastronomic delights. On select islands, visitors have the opportunity to enjoy a combination of swimming, fishing, and delectable cuisine, with places like Tourlida and Etoliko standing out in this regard. Within the Messolonghi lagoon, you'll encounter the largest salt marshes in the country, with an annual production potential of up to 120,000 tons. The tradition of salt production here dates back to the 14th century and continues to this day, following the same timeless method: seawater is naturally evaporated by the sun and wind, leaving behind salt crystals. The distinctive landscape has left an indelible mark on human activities. Here, you'll find the iconic "pelades," wooden houses built on the water, and navigate the lagoon's surface with "gaites," a local type of boat designed for shallow waters. Notably, the lagoon of Messolonghi is renowned for its therapeutic clay baths, adding another dimension to the array of experiences awaiting visitors.
