Sinclair is a suburb of Esperance and a locality of the Shire of Esperance in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia. Esperance Senior High School is located in Sinclair.
The traditional lands of the Wudjari and Njunga people, both of the Noongar nation, occupy most of the Shire of Esperance, including the area around Esperance. The eastern tribes of the Wudjari, the Njunga, are seen as a separate people for cultural reasons, having adopted different cultural practices. The Young River, in the west of the shire, forms the boundary between the two groups and Esperance and the suburb of Sinclair are on the traditional land of the later.
