The Association Amics del Museu de Xàbia (AMUX) on his first walk of the 2016 season, he visited the Sèquia de la Noria and the Saladar de Xàbia, both near the Arenal Beach.

History buffs began the tour by visiting the Parador Nacional de Turismo and the remains of the ancient Roman fish farm situated behind the hotel. They knew their operation and the type of fish caught since the earliest times.

The tour continued along the coast to see carved into the rough stone that served to direct the seawater salt ponds Saladar channels. A salt was used to preserve fish caught.

The tour was divided into two groups of twenty people, one guided by the museum director, Joaquim Bolufer, and other English-speaking explanations that followed local archaeologist Josep Castelló.

    All excursions that are great AMUX program; it is not scheduled some more during the summer, although it is hot, because I think that would be interested in participating to many who can only be in Jávea during that time not to have another chance to go out of your vacation days. Still, congratulations to publicize the history of this beloved people.
