Lake Hillier - Australia


   Lake Hillier is located on the largest island of the Australian Rechercher Archipelago , Middle Island ( Western Australia ).

  What makes this lake so attractive is its amazing rose pink color .

  The lakes color is permanent but the scientists still don’t know the reason behind this strange phenomena.
Some think the color is due to the microorganisms that dwell in the salty water.
   
   The 600 meter long lake is separated by the ocean by a narrow strip of sand , and is surrounded by dense Paperbark and Eucalyptus forests  that really make the lake stand out , you could say lake Hillier is a pink gem in a sea of green and blue , and amazing natural wonder of Australia.
