Why are the sandy beaches so white in Fiji?
The very white sand beaches, as can be found on many islands throughout Fiji result from the natural grinding down of dead coral. Beaches that occur where there is no fringing coral reef are more golden colour, and less frequently they are black, due to the grinding down of volcanic rock along the shores.
