The Peel-Yalgorup System Ramsar site is an internationally significant habitat for waterbirds and migratory wading birds. Tens of thousands of waterbirds gather each year with over 80 species recorded, of which 29 are listed on the Japan- Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (JAMBA) and the China-Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (CAMBA). It contains one of the few places in the world that supports living thrombolites in inland waters.
The system is also valuable culturally and as a commercial and recreational waterway with significant development in the tourism industry.
Fish and shellfish harvesting is a major recreational and commercial industry in the area.
