You'll be spoilt for choice with the myriad offerings in Albany!

WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Experience Extraordinary

The historic and picturesque coastal region boasts some of the most awe-inspiring coastline and stunning landscapes in the world

With unique and diverse flora and fauna endemic to the region, there is a wealth of national parks to explore. And to top off its natural beauty and cultural heritage, the region offers a variety of gourmet attractions, with an abundance of wineries, farmers markets and producers to discover.

Albany

The breathtaking beauty of Albany’s rugged coastline creates a fitting backdrop to a dramatic whaling, convict and settler history and a sensational south coast adventure. The Albany Highway gets you there in just five hours from Perth, while a direct flight from Perth airport will whisk you there in one hour and 15 minutes. Or why not take your time and enjoy one of the world’s greatest journeys, walking the Bibbulmun Track that runs from Perth to Albany or take a foodie route driving via the Margaret River Region.

This charming city marks the spot where the first European settlers set foot in Western Australia, and much of their legacy remains today with around 50 colonial buildings standing proudly as museums, galleries and restaurants. From convict prisons, whaling ships and taverns to quaint cottages and grand National Trust residences, you can take in almost two centuries of history on a 30-minute selfguided walk, following the Amity Trail. Albany’s King George Sound also marks the spot where the first convoy of ANZACs departed for the battlegrounds of the First World War.

Today, you can follow their extraordinary stories through the National Anzac Centre’s state-of-the-art interactive displays. You’ll also find some of the town’s biggest tales in the Historic Whaling Station at Discovery Bay, the only museum of its kind to be housed in a former whaling station. The industry met its end in 1978, creating a safe port of call for migrating humpback,
southern right and blue whales. Spot them from the shore or join a whale watching cruise for a magical encounter.

One of the most scenic areas for whale spotting and cliff-top walks is Torndirrup National Park. Here, the Southern Ocean has sculpted the granite coastline into striking formations known as The Gap and Natural Bridge. For sensational views over King George Sound, head for Middleton Beach boardwalk trail. Or take a drive up to Albany Wind Farm and feel dwarfed by the towering turbines. As well as world-class hiking, you’ll also find some top-notch spots for fishing, sailing and diving.

A weekend visit also brings the iconic Albany Farmers’ Markets. No imports here, just fresh and fabulous, locally-grown flavours.

Oranje Tractor Wines

Taste Albany

There’s a reason Albany’s gourmet providores, organic food producers, farmers’ markets and dining outlets are stacking up all the food awards’ silverware. Produce so fresh you can count the minutes since it was harvested, devotion to sustainable agricultural methods, commitment to time-honoured cooking techniques passed down through generations and a strictly seasonal approach to dining room menus. The list goes on and so does Albany’s food and wine scene, brimming with produce so fresh it begs to be devoured, now.

Visit the cellar doors for a wine tasting, or dine in and taste some of the Great Southern’s fresh local produce. Linger around the vineyards and enjoy your peaceful surroundings. Start or end your foodie adventure in Albany with a trip to Western Australia’s famous Margaret River region, three and a half hours drive from Perth. Producing over 25% of Australia’s premium wine, the tastings are top notch. And besides over 200 wineries, you’ll be spoilt for choice with many fine restaurants, boutique breweries, art galleries and fresh produce, from divine cheeses to chocolate.
