Bermuda is home to a variety of pink beaches.

Across the world are beaches filled with bright purple, pink, red, green, black, orange, and white sands.

Whether it's years of volcanic activity that give the sand its ashy black color or miniature coral fragments that mix with white sand to form a lovely pink hue, the results are breathtaking.

From the Red Beach in Santorini, Greece, to the olive green shores of Papakolea Beach in Hawaii, here are 15 of the most colorful beaches in the world.
