Cardup is an outer suburb of the Western Australian capital city of Perth, located in the Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale to the north of the town Mundijong.

[2] In 1844, surveyor Robert Austin recorded that Cockburn Sound Location 22 was called Cardoup.

In 1851, the location was purchased by H. Mead, who gave his address as Cardup and this spelling was used for the brook on most subsequent plans and surveys.

Cardup is an Aboriginal name said to mean "place of the racehorse goanna" (Kurda).
