Oh yes, they are very real. But quicksand is not like it is in the movies. It doesn't suck you down and it's usually very shallow. It was tested on the Mythbusters TV show in USA. A slow, determined wiggling struggle will get you out.

It's usually fine-grained sand mixed with water. Another self-rescue technique of which I have read, is to try to float on your back and swim slowly out.
