Denham beach (WA 1339) is a straight 1.5 km long beach that commences as the boundary bluffs trend slightly inland. The beach terminates on the southern side of the jetty and its associate structures include the dredged channel for boat access and the boat ramp. The beach is backed by a continuous rock seawall, together with a rock then wooden groyne towards the northern end, then the grassy reserve, road and main street of Denham. The main road and first row of houses are built on a low sandy plain that has prograded about 100 m onto the flats with the remainder of the town spread up onto the backing 30 m high slopes. The beach is fronted by sand flats, which narrow from 1 km in the south to 500 m at the jetty. Small dinghies are pulled up in the beach and larger boats moor off the end of the sand flats over the deeper seagrass meadows. read more
