It’s the sort of mesmerising dividing line image that might come from an otherworldly NASA probe – but it is right here in South Australia.
The striking pink waterscape separated from a neighbouring blue-green lake by a gunbarrel-straight dirt road is Lake MacDonnell, near Penong by the Nullarbor Plain. And it’s a tourism star.
“The striking natural beauty of Lake MacDonnell has captured the imagination of our followers on Instagram this year and it’s not hard to see why,” he said.
“Inspiring content like this really cuts through and grabs attention, and we hope that by sharing these beautiful shots with the world, we’ll encourage more people to visit South Australia for their next holiday.
“Not only does it allow us to promote our amazing destinations but also connects potential travellers to inspiring tourism operators.”
