Until 40 years ago, salt was extracted from seawater in the salt pans of Alikes. Today, the water protection area near the village of Petriti is one of the most beautiful excursion destinations on Corfu. A paradise for birdwatchers: flamingos, herons and many migratory birds stop here on their journey to Africa. If you visit the salt pans of Alikes, be sure to take your binoculars!

Rare plant species that specialise in salt water also thrive in the salt flats and enjoy the best conditions in the water protection area. A picturesque destination for unforgettable nature experiences!
