Denmark, Western Australia, holiday accommodation. Family-friendly, self-contained. Overlooking Wilson Inlet.
There's a cycle / walking track from Lights Beach to Madfish Bay, and I regularly go on a bike ride to Madfish or Greens Pool from Lights Beach. And as I was cycling back to Lights Beach, this stunning and almost full rainbow appeared. They are a regular sight here – it's called the Rainbow Coast for a reason!
About 20 km from Rainbow House, Greens Pool is probably the most popular tourist destination in the Denmark area, and for a good reason: A big beach area almost fully enclosed by rocks, making it a very safe swimming area. And when the sun is out, the water has this stunning turquoise colour.
Greens Pool is in William Bay National Park, east of Denmark heading towards Walpole.
The "Falls of Forth" are on the Kent River, north-west of Denmark, about a half hour drive away. After the heavy rain we had in winter, the falls are thundering away, and quite impressive to watch. Lots of foam comes from the tannin of the surrounding trees, and although it makes the water brownish, it is very clean, and perfectly drinkable!
Denmark being on the water, lends itself to kayaking. There are a couple of places where you can hire kayaks. One such place is Rivermouth caravan park. They provide everything you need like a safety-vest.
Early in the spring not many people are doing it, but as the weather gets warmer you see them much more regularly. People look relaxed and are having fun. They paddle themselves from the inlet up the Denmark River into town.
