Description

Hutt Lagoon's iconic colouring comes from the presence of the caroteinoid-producing algae, dunaliella salina - which is a source of beta-carotene; a food-colouring agent and a great source of Vitamin A. Dunaliella salina is commonly used in cosmetics and dietary supplements - it's said to be fantastic for skin health. Hutt Lagoon contains the world's largest microalgae production plant and a commercial supply of brine shrimp, which is used as a specialty feed by prawn and fish farmers. It's recommended that you visit between 10am and 2pm, when the sun is high - this will bring out the most impressive shades. No camping or overnight parking allowed.
