Oddly enough, Saudi Arabia imports Gulf of Mexico sand because Saudi sand is unsuitable as a filtration material for swimming pools, etc...

There are some types of sand - specifically that beautiful white sand prized by beachgoers- that are created by parrotfish as they eat coral and the stuff growing on it:

All that lovely white sand that supports bikini clad women had to pass through the teeth and digestive tracts of generations of colorful parrotfish.
