It was established in 2006, becoming Western Australia's 97th national park in the process.[2] It is around {{convert|2593|ha|acre|0}} in area. LocationThe area is backed by King George Sound to the south, Oyster Harbour to the west, Taylor Inlet to the east and farmland to the north.[3] The park takes its name from a small island off Ledge Beach, which is not part of the park. Boiler Bay is at the eastern edge of Ledge Beach.[4] The Mount Martin Botanical Reserve is adjacent to the western boundary and Two Peoples Bay Nature Reserve is approximately {{convert|10|km|mi|0}} to the east of the park.[5] DescriptionThe area is an almost unspoilt example of coastal east Kalgan vegetation system. Composed of granite headlands separated by sandy beaches with lakes and interdunal wetlands, the area contains a number of specific ecosystems. Rocky granite areas exist, including Mount Taylor and Mount Martin, both of which are part of the Gardner Landform unit.[6] The diverse landforms and soils support an array of different habitats and a large number of floral species. A complex patchwork of forest, woodlands, wetlands, sedges, granite shrublands and coastal heath is found within the park.[5] Flora and faunaEndangered species such as the noisy scrub-bird, western bristlebird and the western whipbird are known to inhabit the area.[6] The endangered Western ringtail possum is also frequently sighted in the area.[3] Many rare plant species including Corybas limpidus, Adenanthos cunninghamii, Banksia verticillata and Stylidium plantagineum are also found in the National Park.[7] Areas of banksia woodland, sheoak forest, open heath and grassed dunes can all be found within the park. Notable flora include Banksia coccinea, Hakea elliptica, Allocasuarina trichodon, Agonis marginata and Dryandra formosa. The area is home to the most significant remaining stands of scarlet banksia, Banksia coccinea, in the region,[4] however this community is threatened by Phytophthora dieback.[5] Melaleuca striata coastal heath grows on the lower elevations of Mount Taylor. Melaleuca striata, Banksia attenuata and Banksia coccinea are present on the heath, but their growth is stunted by the salt laden air. Anarthria scabra is predominant in the sedgeland, with Adenanthos cuneatus, Astroloma baxteri, Hypocalymma strictum, Hypolaena exsulca, Isopogon cuneatus, Lyginia barbata, Melaleuca thymoides, and Petrophile rigida also present.[8]The rare and ancient Main's assassin spider, currently listed as threatened, was found to inhabit the park during a survey conducted in 2008.[9] References{{commons}}1. ^{{cite journal| year=2010| title=Department of Environment and Conservation 2009–2010 Annual Report| pages=48| publisher=Department of Environment and Conservation| issn=1835-114X| url=http://www.dec.wa.gov.au/content/view/6139/2345/| deadurl=yes| archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110111124319/http://www.dec.wa.gov.au/content/view/6139/2345/| archivedate=11 January 2011| df=dmy-all}} {{National Parks of Western Australia}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.parliament.wa.gov.au/publications/tabledpapers.nsf/displaypaper/3711957a9adcd395d9af5eb2482571f700340ddd/$file/conservation+and+land+management+ar+2005-06.pdf|title=Annual Report 2005-2006|year=2006|accessdate=6 August 2016|publisher=Department of Conservation and Land Management}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.naturebase.net/content/view/2355/770/|title=Albany gets WA's newest national park|last=Minister's office|date=5 July 2006|work=Department of Environment and Conservation website|publisher=Department of Environment and Conservation, Government of Western Australia|accessdate=28 September 2010}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://parks.dpaw.wa.gov.au/park/gull-rock|title=Gull Rock National Park|year=2013|accessdate=6 October 2015|publisher=Department of Parks and Wildlife}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=https://parks.dpaw.wa.gov.au/sites/default/files/downloads/parks/south_coastal_parks_brochure_web.pdf|title=Two Peoples Bay Nature Reserve|accessdate=31 July 2016|publisher=Department of Environment and Conservation}} 6. ^1 {{cite AHD|18036|Gull Rock National Park|date=1991|accessdate=16 September 2010}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.environment.gov.au/node/15751|title=Noisy Scrub-bird (Atrichornis clamosus) Recovery Plan|author1=Alan Danks |author2=Andrew A.
