About
Quick facts: Pink sand gets its color from crushed red coral mixed into the white sand. Less than a dozen beaches worldwide feature this stunning natural pink hue, making it an extraordinary sight.
Highlights: The pink tint is most vivid near the calm, coral-filled waters where sunlight reflects the crushed coral pieces. The beach stretches for around 500 meters, offering a rare pastel shoreline that glows softly during sunset.
Insider tips
- Wear water shoes to protect your feet from coral fragments when walking in the shallow water.
- Bring a polarized lens camera filter to capture the true pink color without glare.
- Avoid weekends and holidays to enjoy a tranquil beach experience with fewer visitors.
- Explore the nearby snorkeling spots early as marine life is most active in the morning.
