=== Shell Beach ===

Shell Beach is a unique stretch of beach situated in the Shark Bay region of Western Australia, about 45 Km south-east of the town of Denham. It is comprised completely of small white shells from 7 to 10 meters in depth. There is only one other beach in the world made entirely of shells.

Some parts of the beach are so densely packed with shells, that locals have actually cut blocks of shells out and used them to build buildings. These include a telegraph station and the Old Pearler restaurant in Denham. Such buildings efforts have been stopped since Shark Bay has been inducted into the world heritage list… so no littering!

Shell beach is just one of many locations offering unique attractions around the Shark Bay Region which is located approximately 800 km north of Perth.
