Oyster Harbour Shellfish Reef Project Overview | The Nature Conservancy Australia

In Albany, Western Australia, The Nature Conservancy Australia is restoring the lost shellfish reefs of Oyster Harbour so that once again the local area, people and marine environment can benefit from all the services a thriving shellfish reef provides. This includes a boost to fish productivity, improved water quality and increased overall biodiversity in the harbour. When English explorer George Vancouver became the first European to visit the area in 1791 he was so impressed by the amount and size of the oysters growing here that he named it Oyster Harbour.
