Floods wash away salt industry and tourism at Senegal’s Lake Retba, or the 'Pink Lake'.
Floods are threatening the existence of Senegal’s famous pink lake and livelihoods of those near the tourist attraction.
Around three thousand families earn their livelihoods extracting bucketfuls of salt from the lake bed.
At the height of the rainy season, water cascaded into the Retba lake/Pink Lake increasing its usual depth. The influx washed away some 7,000 tonnes of salt worth thousands of dollars. It could also endanger tourism. Salt is believed to play a key role in imbuing the lake with its signature tinge.
