Before
the advent of tourism, Torrevieja's main source of income was from
sea salt. The salt works are still operational and are the most
productive in Europe, (the second most important in the world).

or evening stroll. The night market in Torrevieja stretches all
along the prom from about 8 p.m. onwards and is a must for the bargain
hunter. There is an excellent choice of shops and the lively atmosphere
of Torrevieja town makes browsing a pleasant experience. The choice
of restaurants is endless and, being a fishing town, fish dishes
