AKA: Pink Lake

WEBSITE:
Pink Lake

Usage Restriction: Unfortunately no filming is allowed on Lake Hillier. The lake is on Middle Island the largest of the islands that make up the Recherche Archipelago off the coast of Esperance which is a protected reserve and therefore inaccessible. It can only be viewed from the air, about a one hour flight from Esperance. However there is a more accessible lake 60 km south of Kalbarri on George Grey Road, called Pink Lake, which depending on the time of the day and the levels of the Beta Carotene, turns into a magnificent plain of bright pink water.
