The Pink Salt Ponds in California!
It's a Great Time to see Pink Salt Ponds in California!
The Salt Ponds at Alviso Marina County Park in San Jose, California turn a dark pinkish hue when microorganisms in the water thrive. The bacteria and algae produce pigments or chemicals that give the water a pink tint.
The ponds' color comes from a few types of colorful bacteria, algae, and small creatures. These organisms are normally present in tiny amounts in the Bay water, but they are the only living things that survive in highly salty water.
