Bonaire: 3,700 hectares of salt marshes conceal a history of slavery

At the southern tip of Bonaire, a Dutch-speaking island in the Caribbean, the salt marshes stretch out in pink and white basins across nearly 3,700 hectares—thirteen percent of the island’s total area. This postcard view, photographed every year by thousands of visitors from the coastal road, hides a history dating back more than five centuries, the story of salt that shaped Bonaire’s economy and, for two hundred years, the lives of hundreds of enslaved people. Along EEG Boulevard, which runs along the southern coast of Bonaire, mountains of white salt come into view kilometers before you reach them. Each contains about 10,000 metric tons of salt that is 99.6% pure, piled nearly 15 meters high, with up to 200,000 metric tons stored at any given time. Their whiteness, so intense that you need to keep sunglasses handy, stands in stark contrast to the pink of the neighboring pools. The salt
