Oyster Harbour, Western Australia

Miaritch/Oyster Harbour[1]is a permanently open estuary, north of King George Sound, which covers an area of 15.6 square kilometres (6 sq mi) near Albany, Western Australia.

[2] The harbour is used to shelter a fishing fleet carrying out commercial fishing and the farming of oysters and mussels[3] via a dredged channel around Emu Point to the Emu Point Boat Pens.

A planned locality of Oyster Harbour on the Lower King Road is under construction with 2,300 home sites.

[5] At the north eastern end near the mouth of the Kalgan River mouth are the Albany Fish Traps, a site of great significance to the local Mineng peoples, constructed over 7,500 years ago.
