These dunes have an organic origin because they come from the disintegration and spray and bivalve shells and other marine organisms with rigid external skeleton. Under the dunes are the typical "badlands", this accumulation of volcanic rocks of very sharp edges and edges that are completely hidden by several meters thick with fine white sand.
