Coongan Station is a pastoral lease that was once a sheep station but now operates as a cattle station in Western Australia.

It is approximately {{convert|55|km|mi|0}} north of Marble Bar and {{convert|117|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} south-east of Port Hedland on the Coongan River in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.[1]

The station was established at some time prior to 1896, when it was owned by a Mr. Hardey.[2] The following year the station was owned by the Robinson brothers.[3] The Robinsons, Percy and John, started with a flock of 2,000 sheep.[4]

In 1910, the property supported a flock of 17,500 sheep, which produced 250 bales of wool.[5]

Percy Robinson died in 1943 at the age of 77 years.[4][6]
