<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe arranged a private tour of Pink Sand with two girls who were on the tour with us to Blue Lagoon. They had to be back at 3:30 to catch a plane home and needed to cut the tour short. We agreed because we were apprehensive we wouldn\u2019t get to Pink Sand Beach. They needed a minimum of 6 guests if we booked at the hotel. The guides only needed 4. If you look closely at the picture you can see two people to our left, way in the distance. The boat is a small smudge to their right! I did a bit of colour adjustment to show how pink the sand really is. The sand bar is a long way from shore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n I of course will nap anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Barb was relaxing before the long hike back to the boat.

As the guys were cooking, we went for a walk on the beach. It was idyllic. White sand, water that you can hardly describe the blues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What does the sand really look like? It\u2019s not what you think. Here are two closeups of the sand beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you don\u2019t have water shoes it\u2019s almost impossible to walk on the beach. There are some beautiful beaches like at Pink Sand but the majority are like this. Given enough time, the sea will grind the broken coral into soft sand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We got up early to go to Pink Sand Beach. It\u2019s over 90 minutes by boat. The boat moves at about 45 km\/hr so it\u2019s quite a journey. This was the view from the restaurant at breakfast every morning. We … Continue reading
It was a long boat ride but we finally made it. Pink Beach is a a very large sand bar at one end of the lagoon. The tide determines how big the beach actually is. We had a long walk, about 1km in the water to get to the sand bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>
