Monger Island is a reed island in Galup (Lake Monger), Perth, Western Australia. It is in the suburb of Wembley.
Monger Island was created in the 1960s in the south-west corner of the lake as a bird refuge. It supports reeds such as Typha and sedges, and provides reedbeds as habitats for bird species such as the Australian reed warbler.
