Bay in Western Australia

**L'Haridon Bight** is one of the bays on the eastern side of the [Peron Peninsula](/source/Peron_Peninsula) in the [Shark Bay World Heritage Site](/source/Shark_Bay%2C_Western_Australia) in the [Gascoyne](/source/Gascoyne) region of [Western Australia](/source/Western_Australia).[1]

At its southern end lies [Shell Beach](/source/Shell_Beach%2C_Western_Australia), which is part of the very narrow [Taillefer Isthmus](/source/Taillefer_Isthmus) that leads to the Peron Peninsula to the north. Its mouth at the north is just south west of [Faure Island](/source/Faure_Island), where two points define its northern reach – Petit Point in the eastern part, and Dubaut Point to the west on the Peron Peninsula.[2] It is one of locations in the Shark Bay where the water is [hypersaline](/source/Saline_water),[3] and is also where a marine reserve exists.[4]
