Indonesia West Nusa Tenggara Regency

Pink Beach

A pristine shoreline in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, known for its striking rose-tinted sand due to crushed red coral mixed with white sand.

Tips from the community

On the eastern shore of Lombok, Indonesia, you’ll find Tangsi: just one of ten beaches in the world with sand that’s entirely pink. How? Over time, water washed millions of red coral fragments up from the seabed. When mixed with normal sand, the beach turned a delicious shade of pink — one that travelers have been dying to since their toes into ever since. It’s both comical and breathtaking, one of our favorite combinations.
