Overview

Pink Beach, also known as Pantai Merah Muda, is renowned for its distinctive pink sands and crystal-clear waters. This beach is one of only a few in the world with naturally pink-colored sand, created from crushed coral and shells.

Pink Beach is famous for its unique pink sand, which is a result of the mixture of white sand and red marine invertebrates.
