Denham Seaside Caravan Park

Get your bearings with a little walk around Denham, strolling along the waterfront and dropping in to the Shark Bay World Heritage Discovery and Visitor Centre to find out why this area earned its place on the UNESCO list. To see it all from a different angle, take a flight from Shark Bay Aviation to see the red dunes, turquoise ocean and green seagrass from above. The boardwalks at Eagle Bluff (20 minutes’ drive) are great for a coastal stroll, with possible sightings of sharks, rays and turtles on offer; for guaranteed marine animal spottings, head to Ocean Park Aquarium (10 minutes) or try out Monkey Mia Conservation Park (20 minutes), where dolphin feeding happens early every morning. There are plenty of options around if you really want to get stuck into ocean-based activities though: kitesurfing and windsurfing are popular picks (with instruction available), as are snorkelling or diving trips with local providers. You can also join fishing charters, wildlife cruises or boat trips to Dirk Hartog Island.
