visit to Lake Retba, also known as the “Pink Lake” located northeast of Dakar. This lake is considered an anomaly as it boasts one of the rarest natural phenomena in the world. The lakes pinkish hue is because of the excessive amount of Dunaliella salina algae in the water that produce a red pigment used to absorb light, which in turn than provides the algae with life-energy. The pink color is particularly visible during the dry season. The lake is also known for its abundantly high salt content.
