The Pink Lagoon of Torrevieja “Laguna Salada de Torrevieja” is one of the two famous salt lagoons in the Parque Natural de las Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja. It is particularly known for its unusual pink color, which is due to the interaction of special types of algae and microorganisms. These microorganisms produce a reddish pigment that intensifies in certain lighting conditions and gives the lagoon its characteristic color.A visit at sunrise or sunset intensifies the pink tones even more, so that the lagoon glows in intense colors.
