unusual facts about Denham Bay


Denham Bay

Denham Bay was named for Capt Henry Mangles Denham of the HMS Herald, who charted the island in July 1854, and for his son Fleetwood James Denham, who died from a tropical fever at the age of sixteen, and was buried near the beach at the head of Denham Bay, alongside the small number of graves from early settlers on the island.
