Description
Carnac Island, also known as Ngooloormayup in Noongar language, is a 19-hectare (47-acre) nature reserve in Western Australia. The island has a rich history, including serving as a whaling station in the early 19th century and a prison for indigenous Australians in 1838. Its first mention was in 1803 when French explorer Louis de Freycinet named it Île Pelée (Bald Island).
