Islands Of Lake Argyle
The Lake Argyle Islands are a large group of islands in Lake Argyle, created by the Ord River Dam on the Ord River in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. There are nearly 70 islands with official names, including most of the larger islands, as well as some small rocky outcrops. Formation The islands are former elevated points and ranges found on what used to be a section of Argyle Cattle Station, prior to the damming of the Ord River in 1971. As the lake filled, the lower grasslands became submerged while higher places along ranges became newly formed islands. The dam has never, and highly unlikely to be dry, thus ensuring most islands are permanent. As the lake level often changes islands can grow, shrink, disappear and reappear according to water levels. Some islands have rocky or sandy beaches and quite a range of flora and fauna, while others are swampy/fully rock and are quite barren.

Coastal Regions Of Western Australia
Western Australia has the longest coastline of any state or territory in Australia, at 10,194 km or 12,889 km (20,781 km including islands). It is a significant portion of the coastline of Australia, which is 35,877 km (59,736 km including islands). The earliest full charting of the coastline occurred during exploration in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The coastline has some features or organisms that are found on the entire length, while some others are specific to particular coastal regions. Various government map posters have been created over time, which have examples of coastal form, or types of coast such as the 1984 map with photos. Integrated Marine and Coastal Regionalisation of Australia (IMCRA) The IMCRA has offshore regions delineated in a systematic appraisal of ecology and geography. Coastal regions used in weather reports Standard Bureau of Meteorology reports include the following reference points for coastal w ...

Islands Of Western Australia
An island (or isle) is an isolated piece of habitat that is surrounded by a dramatically different habitat, such as water. Very small islands such as emergent land features on atolls can be called islets, skerries, cays or keys. An island in a river or a lake island may be called an eyot or ait, and a small island off the coast may be called a holm. Sedimentary islands in the Ganges delta are called chars. A grouping of geographically or geologically related islands, such as the Philippines, is referred to as an archipelago. There are two main types of islands in the sea: continental and oceanic. There are also artificial islands, which are man-made. Etymology The word ''island'' derives from Middle English ''iland'', from Old English ''igland'' (from ''ig'' or ''ieg'', similarly meaning 'island' when used independently, and -land carrying its contemporary meaning; cf. Dutch ''eiland'' ("island"), German ''Eiland'' ("small island")). However, the spelling of the word ...
