Nestled in the heart of the Atacama Desert, Cejar Lagoon is a unique desert sinkhole known for its salt-rich waters. This natural wonder, located near San Pedro de Atacama, offers visitors a chance to experience the buoyancy similar to that of the Dead Sea. The lagoon’s high salinity makes it easy to float, providing a surreal and memorable swimming experience. Surrounded by the stark, arid landscape, the lagoon stands out as a striking oasis, inviting travelers to immerse themselves in its mineral-rich waters and enjoy the serene, otherworldly environment.
