Trip from Blessed House to Playa Negra, Limón, Costa Rica. A striking destination famous for its unique dark volcanic sand, fine textures, and high iron content.

As documented in geological surveys by researchers at the University of Costa Rica, this high iron concentration is why the sand can actually react to magnets.
