Like broken glass, bleached sand, or refined salt, the breakpoints are transparent but partially reflecting, because the index of refraction changes at them.

Backed by lush green cliffs and washed by azure waters, which on a sunny day do an enticingly good impression of the Caribbean, the large expanse of bleached sands give the bay its name.
