List of islands of Western Australia, H–L facts for kids
This article is a list of islands found in Western Australia. It includes all kinds of islands, big or small, whether they are along the coast or in lakes and rivers inland. It also lists groups of islands, like archipelagos, which are chains or clusters of islands.
This list was first put together in 1996 for the official "Gazetteer of Australia," which is like a big dictionary of place names. The names have been checked and confirmed since then. However, if any new islands have been officially named or removed from maps since 1996, they might not be on this list.
