Don Juan Pond is a small, ankle-deep lake located in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica. With a salinity level of over 40%, it is the saltiest known body of water on earth. The pond is 18 times saltier than the ocean.
Even though it's situated in one of the coldest region in Antarctica, Don Juan Pond is so salty that it never freezes even in temperatures as low as minus 40 degrees Celsius.
