This beach in Western Australia is made entirely of tiny shells instead of sand. It extends for many miles and the shells are up to 33 feet deep. The shells below the surface become compacted and in the past were mined and made into blocks for building. Today the beach is a protected site.
Such a beautiful photo!
Thank you very much!

Thank you, Mike!
These clouds are amazing! And sounds like an amazing place, 33 feet! of shells under your feet.. that’s crackin no doubt 🙂
Yes, a lot of cracking! But, there were still plenty of new shells.
love the photo – but want to know where the beach is please…
Thank you Maureen! The beach is on the west coast of Australia in the Shark Bay/Denham area.
Are people allowed to walk on the beach?
I’m not sure. I didn’t see any people walking down to the beach when I was there and I don’t recall seeing a trail.
Beautiful Photo! So many shells.
