Answer 1:
Wow! I've never seen India's beaches. They
sound beautiful. The different minerals in sand
give the sands their different colors. I got a
handful of sand recently from a cliff that was an
orange-brown color. And I have black sand and
green sand, though the green sand is fairly close
to black.
The minerals come from rocks, lava, shells, and
corals.
I like this site, which tells about minerals in
sand and their colors:

I searched in that site for 'yellow,' 'orange,'
and 'pink.' Yellow minerals were more common than
orange or pink ones.
Keep asking questions!
