Stefan-L:
"When you propose coloured grains you mean i use actual geometry?"

no geometry, i mean a bitmap texture for color, and another bitmap for the ultra fine displacement

(dont use noise this tends not to work good with very fine details)

Mac3DX:
It will depend a lot on how closely you will see this texture. Look for PBR textures, to see from afar it's perfect. If you are going to take a close-up, replicate some grains with the Corona Scatter over the sand texture.

BigAl3D:
The Mograph Cloner and generate more clones on top of other clones. Maybe that might help you in this case. There is a very nice sand material in Cosmos.

How will you make the footprints? Displacement? Object Deformer?

Thank you Stefan, will work on it today.. basically i need a very good bitmap with ultra fine detail

Its very closeup,will try using two bitmaps as Stefan suggested but i also like the idea of scattering over a texture. i will attempt both to see how each yields
