Albany Fish Traps

[2] The low loose stone walls of the traps are on the northern shore of Oyster Harbour and are back by a steep hill.

[3] Arranged in a crescent shape the traps are composed of eight separate weirs each consisting of thousands of stones.

All of the stones used in the traps are dark, almost black, lateritic material found naturally on the shoreline.

The site was returned to the Menang people through the Albany Heritage Reference Group Aboriginal Corporation in a ceremony in 2009.

[3] Following the discovery in 2011 that hundreds of the stones had been removed,[5][6] a A$170,000 project was initiated to construct a cultural shelter, boardwalk and interpretation signs adjacent to the traps.
