  Though it is not directly in the Dead Sea, this lake has become an increasingly popular destination for travellers due to its unusual and captivating colour, which ranges from a deep pink to a light lavender hue depending on the time of day and seasonal conditions. The Pink Lake’s distinctive colour comes from the presence of certain types of microorganisms, particularly Dunaliella salina, a type of algae. These algae thrive in the high salt concentration of the lake, which is similar to the environment of the Dead Sea. Dunaliella salina produces a pigment known as beta-carotene, which gives the water its reddish-pink tone. This pigment also provides the lake with a rich, vibrant appearance, particularly during the warm summer months when the algae bloom in abundance.
