Just 10 minutes from Torrevieja lies one of the most spectacular landscapes on the Mediterranean coast: the Pink Lake of Torrevieja. This natural phenomenon, unique in Europe, amazes visitors with the intense pink color of its waters, which change shades depending on the sunlight and time of year.
Why is the water of the Pink Lake pink?
The Pink Lake of Torrevieja owes its special hue to the presence of microorganisms and halophilic algae that thrive in the high salt concentration. These tiny organisms release natural pigments that tint the water pink, creating an unforgettable visual spectacle.
The lake is part of the Natural Park of the Lagoons of La Mata and Torrevieja, a protected area featuring walking trails, scenic viewpoints, and a wide variety of bird species, including pink flamingos — the true icons of the region.
What to do at the Pink Lake of Torrevieja
Although swimming is not allowed, visiting the lake is a truly memorable experience. You can explore its trails on foot or by bike, enjoy the sunset — when the water’s pink color is at its most vibrant — or simply relax and admire one of the most unique landscapes on the Costa Blanca.
📷 Tip: The best time to visit is at sunset or on sunny days, when the pink reflections of the water contrast beautifully with the white salt and blue sky.
