Geocache Description:

We visited Cocos Island today and walked some of the beaches. We walked around the island and saw some beautiful wildlife and flowers. Then we noticed the sand, some of the sand is shaped like little stars.

Some of the southern Japanese islands and Guam are famous for their beautiful "star sand". These grains are the shells of microscopic, single-celled organisms called foraminiferans or forams. Foraminifera commonly produce a calciferous test (skeleton) that is divided into chambers. Live forams have filopodia (thin cytoplasmic extensions) that are united in a complex fashion to produce reticulopodia.
