Bermuda is a Paradise of Plants and Beaches

The most amazing thing about Bermuda is the CORAL beaches. Coral Pink from the bones of ............. make the coral reef. Boy, do I need to research this. Will get back to you. But the beaches have really Pink sand!!

Beach sand is not volcanic but from finely pulverized remains of calcium carbonate shells and skeletons of invertebrates such as corals, clams, forams and other shells. Beaches begin with tiny single-celled animals, Foraminifera, in particular, homotrema rubrum - or forams - dark red skeletal animals that grow profusely on the underside of Bermuda's coral reefs. When the red forms die, the skeletons plummet to the ocean floor. < More info than you wanted?
