Las Coloradas: Why These Pink Salt Lakes Look Real in Photos

These salt evaporation ponds are neon pink because of microscopic algae, not a filter. It is a strictly controlled site, so you cannot swim in the water anymore, only look from the path. Book the four-hour guided safari if you want to pair this with flamingo spotting in the nearby reserve. Go on a sunny day for the color contrast; skip it if it is overcast. It is a long haul from Merida, so plan accordingly.
