Watching the sunset over the great salt lake. The Great Saltair is a good place to park and walk to the lake (the lake is very low right now so it is about a .5 mile walk to the shore). The lake is very salty and can be smelly so most people don’t swim in it.
The Great Salt Lake is one of the most asked-about tourist destinations in Utah. A remnant of the massive ancient Lake Bonneville, the lake is now landlocked and its waters are salty.
