Experts say aftershocks are still likely following Sunday's earthquake in our Great Southern.

The 5.6 magnitude quake struck just before 1pm between Walpole and Kojonup, with residents as far north as Mandurah and even Perth reporting they felt the tremor.

No damage or injuries have been reported.

Geoscience Australia senior seismologist Phil Cummins told West Coast Radio locals may still feel aftershocks.

"I would still say that aftershocks are likely, although they won't be very energetic," he said.

Mr Cummins said they recorded a small aftershock overnight.

"We recorded one aftershock around 9pm last night, it was a magnitude 2.1."

According to Geoscience Australia, Sunday's 5.6 magnitude earthquake was the fifth strongest in WA.
