An aerial view taken with a drone shows salt evaporation ponds in the coastal town of Anfeh, Lebanon, 22 August 2025. George Sulaiman inherited the family sea salt business in 2013 and modernized it to produce a wider range of products, including coarse salt, magnesium salt, magnesium oil, Japanese nigari salt, and fleur de sel, in an operation running over 4,000 square meters and has an annual production of 60 tons of salt. The production of sea salt is a long-standing artisanal tradition in Anfeh, which includes drawing seawater into shallow, concrete-lined basins, where it evaporates over several months due to the sun and wind, leaving behind salt crystals that are subsequently harvested.
