+===== The Salt Pans =====
+This isn't really a settlement as no one lives here, workers travel out from Croston on a daily basis.  It consists of several shallow pools, where seawater is collected and then allowed to evaporate through heat from the sun.  Some pols are left to dry completely, and the dried salts are collected and used for preserving fish.  Concentrated seawater is collected from a couple of the pools, which might be used (sparingly) in cooking, or for producing brined fish.
