Baños Puerto Base is a saline mineral bathing site in Spain, where chloride-rich saline waters emerge from the geological formations of the Iberian peninsula's interior sedimentary basins, offering mineral baths traditionally associated with well-being in Spanish thermal culture. Spain's saline springs have been used since Roman times within a long bathing tradition, and the balneario tradition preserves these customary applications within regulated establishments. The site continues the long Iberian tradition of using naturally mineralized saline waters for bathing, embedded in a cultural landscape of spas that stretches from the Roman era to the present.
