Pink Beach

One of Komodo’s Most Iconic Beaches

Pink Beach is one of the most recognizable coastal destinations in Komodo National Park, famous for its distinctive pink-colored sand, clear turquoise water, and beautiful tropical surroundings.

The unique color of the beach is created by a mixture of white sand and tiny fragments of red coral that blend together along the shoreline.

Surrounded by rugged hills and the blue waters of the Flores Sea, Pink Beach offers a spectacular combination of natural scenery, relaxation, and marine exploration.

Arriving at Pink Beach by boat reveals a beautiful contrast between the pink-toned shoreline, turquoise sea, and surrounding green and rugged landscapes.

The appearance of the sand can vary depending on sunlight, wetness, tides, and the amount of red coral material naturally mixed into the beach.

Why Is the Sand Pink?

The distinctive pink color comes from a natural mixture of pale sand and microscopic fragments of red coral.

When these coral fragments mix with the lighter sand and are exposed along the shoreline, they create the characteristic pink appearance that makes the beach so famous.
