  • For Seashell Supplies check out my Philippine Page.. we ship worldwide... https://www.facebook.com/seashellsuppliesph/ SHELL BEACH is a beach in the Shark Bay region of Western Australia, 45 kilometres south-east of Denham. Situated on the northeastern side of the Taillefer Isthmus, it covers a 110 km long stretch of coast along the L'Haridon Bight. It is one of only two beaches in the world made entirely from shells. The beach was named "Shell Beach" because of the great abundance of the shells of the cockle species Fragum erugatum. The seawater in the L'Haridon Bight has a high salinity due to both the geomorphology and local climate of the area. This high salinity has allowed the cockle to proliferate unchecked, since its natural predators have not adapted well to this environment. The shells typically reach a depth of 7 to 10 metres. Over time, the shells have formed a limestone that is known as Coquina. #blue #BeachBound

How in the world do you rate perfection?? This piece of paradise was over and above our expectations. Accommodation and grounds were pristine throughout the entire resort. The staff were both knowledgable and professional...always a smile on their faces!!! Special thanks to Eric & Mary (gift shop) and the lovely gal (Joanna) who narrated the dolphin morning feeding experience on 2 occasions while we were there. Truly an incredible resort for those of all ages. We would highly recommend this "gem".

What a stunning place. My only observation is that the general store doesn’t stock much if you fly in and don’t want to eat in the two restaurants. However the monkey bar food was excellent. You really need a car to travel up and down the coast to see the secluded bays and beaches. We did a boat excursion which was excellent. The dolphin experience was great to.
