Some lakes in the Great Rift Valley appear pink due to the presence of high concentrations of certain microorganisms, particularly salt-loving algae like Dunaliella salina, which produce carotenoids. These pigments give the water a reddish hue, especially in saline lakes such as Lake Nakuru and Lake Magadi. Additionally, the high salinity and mineral content of these lakes create an environment conducive to these microorganisms, further enhancing the pink coloration.
