Yalyalup, Western Australia
33°40′S 115°24′E / 33.667°S 115.400°E / -33.667; 115.400
Yalyalup is a suburb of the Western Australian city of Busselton. At the 2021 census, it had a population of 2,950.
The word "Yalyalup" means "place of many holes" in the local Noongar dialect, being a reduplication of "yal", the Wardandi word for "large hole", plus the -up suffix, meaning "place of".[2] After European settlement the area began to be used for timber-milling; the local mill was reworked using state-of-the-art technology in 1963 and finally closed in 1979.[3] The area has also been used for farming, with the Mullgarnup Aboriginal Mission operating on a farm site for about ten years from 1887, and a state school being open from 1910 to 1921.[3][4][5]
The first major estate in the suburb, built by Satterley property Group, was established in 2008.[6][7] The suburb also contains Georgiana Molloy Anglican School,[8] Busselton Margaret River Airport,[9] and Busselton Cemetery.[10]
