Is the Pink Beach really Pink?

Yes, Pink Beach (Pantai Tangsi) in Lombok is really pink, but its appearance is highly dependent on natural conditions such as lighting, the angle of the sun, and the moisture level of the sand. It is one of only seven beaches in the world with this rare coloration.

Why is the Sand in Pink Beach is Pink?

The pink hue is a natural phenomenon caused by the mixture of white calcium carbonate sand with tiny, crushed fragments of red organ-pipe coral. These fragments come from microscopic organisms called foraminifera, which have reddish-pink shells.

What to bring and prepare on Snorkeling tour Pink Beach.

When packing for a snorkeling tour to the Pink Beach, you need to prepare for a full day on an open boat with no standard shops on the smaller islands.

Essential Gear & Clothing

• Swimwear: Wear your swimsuit under your clothes since changing facilities on the islands are very basic or unavailable.
• Rash Guard: A UV-protective swim shirt shields your back from sunburn while snorkeling and protects against occasional stinging plankton.
• Quick-Dry Towel: Pack a lightweight microfiber towel that dries fast between island stops.
• Water Shoes / Booties: Crucial for walking on the coral fragments around Gili Nanggu and Gili Kedis to protect your feet.
• Dry Bag: A 10L to 20L waterproof bag is essential to protect your phone, wallet, and dry clothes from ocean spray on the small motorized outrigger boat.

Sun & Health Protection

• Reef-Safe Sunscreen: Standard sunscreens damage the coral reefs. Use biodegradable, reef-safe sunscreen and apply it 30 minutes before entering the water.
• Anti-Fog Spray: If you bring your own snorkel mask, a small bottle of anti-fog spray or baby shampoo keeps your mask clear.
• Motion Sickness Medication: Take this 30 minutes before boarding if you are prone to seasickness, as the small boats can rock on open water.
