Ojos del Salar

Nestled in the arid plains of the Atacama Desert near San Pedro de Atacama, Ojos del Salar, or Salt Eyes, are a pair of small, perfectly round lakes. These deep-blue pools, resembling eyes peering out from the desert floor, stand out against the stark, dry landscape. The unique appearance and striking contrast make them one of the area’s most photographed sites. Visitors can explore the surrounding salt flats and observe the vivid colors and serene beauty of these natural wonders.
