Lake Hillier in Western Australia is famous for its bright pink water that stretches across the entire lake. The color comes from salt-loving algae and bacteria that produce red pigments, which mix with the salty water to create the vivid pink hue. The lake is about 600 meters long and sits on Middle Island, surrounded by green vegetation. Its water is safe to touch or swim in, and the pink color remains even when water is taken from the lake. Scientists have studied the lake and identified the microbes responsible, though research continues into why the color stays so vibrant year-round.
