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]
