Rainbow Beach, Australia

Unsatisfied with simply taking on an unusual color like red or green, Rainbow Beach takes on a myriad. Off the east coast of Australia, on Fraser Island (the world’s largest sand island), the Rainbow Beach is backed by beautiful cliffs where you can see the rainbow colors most without a doubt in edible-looking striations of nougat, rose, honey and cream.

Indigenous myth has it that a spirit incarnated in the rainbow lunged into the cliffs during a fight over a woman, streaking them with his colors. The sand looks gold from a aloofness but scoop up a handful and you’ll see the rainbow.
