These are the true colors. The colors are due to pinkish-orange algae and violet-pinkish halophiles that live in the north arm, and and blue-green algae in the south arm. It genuinely feels otherworldly.

A bird's (drone's) eye view, looking straight down, at a narrow white road that separates blue waters from pink waters.

From ground level, the colors are hardly noticeable. Here is that same road at sunset from a lower angle. Still pretty, but the colors are mostly lost!

A long road extends out between two large bodies of water. The Sun sets behind a distant mountain range.

I was just questioning whether it could possibly be real. Wow!
