Shell Beach, located in Western Australia’s Shark Bay World Heritage Area, is a striking coastal feature made entirely of billions of small, snow-white Fragum cockle shells rather than sand. The beach stretches for more than 70 kilometres, with shell depths reaching up to 10 metres in some areas. Its clear, hypersaline water makes floating effortless and creates a bright, reflective shoreline. Shell Beach is accessible by 2WD from the nearby town of Denham and is one of the region’s most distinctive natural attractions.
