4.6/5 · 28 review

Highlights:
Pink Beach is a very well-known beach in Greece. It has light pink fine sand, and the fine sand by the sea shows rounds of pink halo under the sunlight. The reason why the sand here is uniquely pink is because hundreds of millions of marine life debris in the sea were washed up on the beach. After long-term weathering, their pink shells were refined into tiny sand-like particles and spread on the beach. On the sandy beaches of Ritter and ELAFONISI. The color of the sea water here is also very dreamy, the color is from shallow to deep, and it is crystal clear. So this beach is very popular, there are many tourists who come to sunbathe, it is a good place for vacation.
