- Its history as a natural habitat for marine life dates back between three and five million years.

- It served as a natural port for the ancient settlement next to Hala Sultan Tekke beginning in the 17th century B.C., but the residents eventually left during the 11th century B.C.
- The natural port was destroyed around the same time the gulf was sealed, resulting in the formation of the central Salt Lake.
- Excavations in the area suggest that transatlantic trade was starting. This may have been one of the first natural ports that allowed trade between Cyprus and the significant civilisations in the vicinity.
- Porphyry-red dies, produced from the juices of murex shells, was one of the more significant and expensive exports of this prehistoric settlement and the nearby thriving town of Kition.

- As implied by the lake's name, salt was another priceless prehistoric byproduct extensively utilised through the ages until very recently.
- Numerous historians noted the excellent quality of the salt in this region and the significant export revenue it generated, dating back to the time before Christ.
