Information

Not to be confused with the Pink Lake at Hutt Lagoon further north of the state near Dongarra !!
This Pink Lake is in Esperance in the south of WA and was previously known as Lake Spencer. It is a salt lake and "historically" the water was visibly pink but it has not shown the pink hue for many years. The pink hue is a naturally occuring phenomena that is related to the salt concentration. So sorry folks but this Pink Lake has lost its pink due to salinity changes caused by human activity.
