I visited Lake Bumbunga (image above) over Thanksgiving break and it was memorizing. It is located in South Australia, which is about a two hour drive from the Adelaide city.

The lake contains salt water and it is pink all through the year! In fact, there are several pink lakes in Australia. It is pink because of the presence of carotene producing algae.

It was first used as a salt producing site; therefore, when I visited, there was actually a layer of crystalized salt underneath all the pinkness.

I strongly recommend anyone who’s interested in natural sceneries to visit Lake Bumbunga.
