Ocean Beach
in the Denmark Region of the Rainbow Coast
Denmark Accommodation

Ocean Beach is set between the Wilson Inlet and the Great Southern Ocean. Only a few kilometres outside Denmark along Ocean Beach Road, the look-out is well signposted with beach access shortly thereafter at the Surf Lifesaving Club.

The beach is a popular surfing spot with a lookout to watch the action. Walking along the beach to the east you will either find a sand-bar taking you to the Nullaki peninsula... or an open channel from the Wilson Inlet (right) where the dark waters pour into the ocean.

Ocean Beach is a must-visit while in Denmark, take a deep breath of the beautiful fresh air coming off the ocean.

Ocean Beach Lookout over the Wilson Inlet

From the look-out there are fantastic views of the beach surf as well as the calm darker waters of the Wilson Inlet (below).

Flocks of Pelicans can be seen fishing at the base of the inlet, from time to time.
