Where to get pink beach this ? Abroad? Oh no , you simply pay a visit to the island of Komodo , West Manggarai regency , East Nusa Tenggara . There, in one of the island there is a beach called Pink Beach or Red Beach .

When visited there some time ago , the beach was pink . At first I did not believe , I think , Pink Beach was just a name , not because it's pink beaches .

Turns out my assumption was wrong, when a speed boat that took me pulled over to the beach , a completely new look charm of beautiful pink beaches .

" Perhaps this is due to the pink coral rubble , " said my colleague speculate . The answer is almost right , the pink color of the Foraminifera -celled animals that live on the ocean floor and brought ashore .

Residents there who accompanied me on the Pink Beach also does not provide clear information on how the story pink beaches formed . Well, maybe just let the experts who examined how this happens pink beaches , the beach is certainly beautiful .

Naturally, if the foreigners and domestic tourists beaches like this . Although the weather is hot enough , does not prevent them to swim on the beach .

You can also photograph the beauty of the pink beach of a hill you can reach from shore . Click - click - click , we will get a panoramic view of the island of Komodo and Pink Beach is complete in a single frame .

Another preoccupation underwater beauty . Yet how far from the coast we will see coral charm that makes this heart fluttered. Snorkling course , no need to dive , because this underwater tour can be seen without us having to dive deeper .
