I have spent quite a lot of time in the Shark Bay area over the years and when Hartog landed on that island all he would have found was limestone and sand with some low lying scrub on it, A pretty desolate place.
There is a replica of the dish at the site that the original was placed 400 years ago.
The channel between the island and the mainland is a pretty good safe anchorage and is used quite often today.
