Greens Pool

Greens Pool is a sandy white beach with boulders on the south coast of Western Australia between Denmark and Walpole.

This sheltered area is part of William Bay National Park[1] and has a sandy white beach ringed by large granite boulders that prevent the swell of the Southern Ocean reaching the shoreline.

[3] The area has a car park, viewing platform and toilet facility with a reasonably steep sandy path down to the beach.

[6] As the Australian continent collided with Antarctica, the rocks along the south coast became part of the Albany-Fraser Orogen, and 600 million years ago the area was a massive mountain range.

[9] Robert Byleveld constructed the first track to Greens Pool in the early 1920s when most of William Bay was inaccessible and visited infrequently.
