Both! The north shore is mainly pebbles and the west shore is mainly sand :) I read the opposite but that doesn't matter because you are sure to find lots of fine white sand.
No, white play sand, usually made of silica, is not known to cause cancer when used in a sandbox. However, prolonged inhalation of silica dust can be harmful to respiratory health, so it's recommended to keep the sand damp to prevent dust.
Jamaica's white sands are mostly made of calcium carbonate, which comes from the shells and skeletons of tiny marine organisms like coral and mollusks. These organisms break down over time, creating the fine white sand found on Jamaica's beaches.
Pink sand is typically made of the crushed remnants of coral, shells, and calcium-carbonate-based organisms that have been broken down by the elements over time. The pink hue is often derived from the presence of red and pink shell pieces and coral fragments mixed with white sand.
Silica sand is typically white or light-colored and has a grainy texture. It is made up of small granules that are smooth and shiny when viewed up close. The sand is a key ingredient in making glass as it provides the silicon dioxide needed to melt and form into glass.

Beach sand with a white hue usually comes from eroded coral. White Sands, New Mexico is famous for the white sand which originates from gypsum deposits from an ancient sea.
