The major reason that beaches differ so much is due to the nature of the material from which they are formed: black beaches are often formed from volcanic rock that is black in color, white beaches are often formed from fragmented coral, muddy beaches may be the result of fine sediments washing down from land or from fine textured offshore deposits.
