Swimming in the Salt Lake used to be a standard on the bucket lists for American travelers.
The train would stop at Salt Air resort and people would float in the salty water. The lake is quite shallow and you can walk out into the briny waters for several hundred yards.
The lake seems to get a little more toxic each year. Swimming in the lake is less popular now than it was in the past.
It is salty and you float. You can start at the Salt Air resort and walk out into the lake
I'd love to spend a little more time out there and actually swim in it. I'm curious how it compares to the Dead Sea, which I've also not been in.
I think I'll add it to my bucket list. 😀
