Denham is the main town in the area and received its name from Captain Henry Mangles Denham who charted the bay in 1858 in HMS Herald. Captain Denham left his mark in the cliff face at Eagle Bluff.

Visitors will enjoy the town's easy going lay back life style. Several buildings have been built from the local shell block. The town has clean safe swimming beaches, restaurants and takeaway food outlets, boat ramp, resort, hotel, caravan parks, self contained villas and backpackers.

Monkey mia is the home of the famous Dolphins and is only 25 kilometres from Denham. Monkey Mia is world renowned for the visiting dolphins which interact with humans.
