Wedge Island, Wedj Boya to the Yued people, is a 400-metre-long (1,300 ft) wedge-shaped island north of Lancelin and south of Cervantes on the Western Australian coast. The island is located just south of “the point” and approximately 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) south-east of an informal settlement known as Grey. Both are within the Shire of Dandaragan.

It is located within the Jurien Bay Marine Park and part of the Wedge Island Nature Reserve.
