Lake Hillier's Pink Waters

Transcript

Behold Lake Hillier, a saline wonder on Middle Island off the coast of Western Australia, renowned for its striking bubblegum pink waters that remain vibrant even when contained. This mesmerizing hue is believed to arise from salt-loving algae and bacteria, including Dunaliella salina and Salinibacter ruber, thriving in its high-salinity environment. Once visited by explorers like Matthew Flinders and even used for salt mining, the lake remains a protected natural gem accessible only by aerial tours. Gaze from above to witness the breathtaking contrast of pink waters, lush eucalyptus forests, and the deep blue ocean—a true spectacle of nature.
