Oct 14, 2009 - Day 85 – Carnarvon to Denham – True “Westies”

There are no prizes for knowing that WA is Australia’s biggest state, so we all know there are long distances between places. The drive into Denham (Australia’s most westerly town) from the highway is stunning and yes I know I am overusing that word. ... Denham itself is a beautiful little town, one main street with shops on one side and the beach on the other. ... The caravan park (Australia’s most westerly caravan park) is at the end of the main road right on the beach, just a walk to the water.There are no prizes for knowing that WA is Australia’s biggest state, so we all know there are long distances between places.

Nov 5, 2007 - A Monkey & Some Dolphins!

I continue on the big yellow bus down the west coast and our next stop is Denham, in the Shark Bay national park area. ... When they first appeared there was little or no oxygen on the earth to support life, it was through the oxygan-generating activity of them that other animal life was able to develop, so they are in a way very distant relatives, we wouldn't be here without them!

The main reason for stopping here is to see the Dolphins at Monkey Mia about 20 mintues away from Denham. ...

We head off for Denham (about 20km from Monkey Mia) first thing. ... We head on and arrive in Denham mid afternoon. ... Denham is only 20 minutes from Monkey Mia, and the closest accommodation we could get, with Monkey Mia only consisting of 1 resort which is booked out. ... Mia is so taken by them that she buys a soft dolphin toy with Monkey Mia written on it - that's my name she says!
