Description

Lake Hutt - Pink Lake.

Pink Lake's colour is created by the presence of carotenoid-producing algae, Dunaliella salina, which is a source of beta-carotene; a food-colouring agent; and a source of Vitamin A.

The lake's colour changes from red to bubblegum pink to lilac purple, depending on the time of day, season and amount of cloud cover when you visit.

At the coordinates there is a dedicated Pink Lake Lookout on Port Gregory Road where you can safely pull off the road, park your car and get out to explore.

Requirements for Logging

You will need a photo of yourself or your caching name with Pink Lake in the background. Your photo can be taken from any place around Pink Lake. Extra points if you find something else in Port Gregory that's pink.

Congratulations dimor - FTF
