As Salinas Naturais de Rio Maior, também conhecidas como Salinas da Fonte da Bica, estão situadas no sopé da Serra dos Candeeiros, a três quilómetros de Rio Maior, em Portugal.

São compartimentos – talhos - feitos de cimento ou de pedra, de tamanho variado e pouco fundos, para onde, por regueiras, é conduzida a água salgada que se tira de um poço.

Presentemente, a água é elevada por meio de um motor e distribuída segundo um sistema conjuntamente aceite e respeitado (nem sempre) por todos os proprietários. Os esgoteiros, as eiras e as casas de madeira para armazenagem do sal, completam o conjunto do que é denominado Marinhas de Sal de Rio Maior.

Uma mina de sal-gema, muito extensa e profunda, segundo os técnicos, atravessada por uma corrente subterrânea que alimenta um poço, faz com que a água dele extraída seja salgada, sete vezes mais salgada que a do mar. Da sua exposição ao sol e ao vento e consequente evaporação da água obtêm-se o sal, depositado no fundo dos talhos e que depois é colocado em montes, em forma de pirâmides, para secar até ser recolhido.

O processo é rudimentar e semelhante ao usado nas salinas da beira-mar. Só há diferença no vale pitoresco que as rodeia, no poço, no estilo próprio dos marinheiros (como são conhecidos os homens que trabalham nas salinas), nas casas de madeira e no ar campestre que se respira.

Top Rio Maior Hotel Reviews

Hotel Oceano

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent-the room was very clean, the staff was very friendly and the breakfast was a nice addition. "

Casa Senhoras Rainhas - Óbidos - by Unlock Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved everything about our stay. Parking, although not on site, is only about 200 meters away (free) This is the joy of being within the city walls. Our room was stunning, it was huge and had a dressing room. The bed was fabulous and the pillows very comfortable. Great shower pressure. The hotel is right near the wall steps and very close to the main restaurants. Breakfast was delicious and excellent value. We stayed two nights. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and helpful."
