Pink Lake in Australia, tourist attraction

Lake Hillier is located on one of the largest islands in Western Australia, and since the discovery in 1802, scientists have been unable to find scientific reasons for the pink color of the lake.

However, a study of this year shows that a combination of microbes and algae gives this characteristic color of water in lakes.

In the months when rainfall is lower, it seems that water reflects sunlight and that water turns white in yellow.

Shane Smith, a 42 - year - old man living in the vicinity, says that the color that holds water in the lake is extraordinary and that it has attracted many visitors.
