Sand is eroded quartz, so what gives a pink sand beach its incomparable color?
The answer lies in microscopic coral insects, known as Foraminifera, (forams for short) who extend pseudopodia or false little feet out of tiny holes in the red and pink shells known as tests, to attach themselves to coral and to feed.
A handsome, well-defined man with chiseled features walks towards the viewer and smiles. A soft pink setting sun is behind him and palm trees line the beach. He is shirtless and is wearing classic swim trunks from 1960. He looks into the viewer's eyes.
