Albany
The oldest permanently
settled town in WA, before Perth and Fremantle, Albany is a characterful
and historic town on the south coast. It was the first deep-water port
on the south coast and was the departure point for many ANZACs who went
to Europe to fight in World War One. The city boasts some beautiful old
architecture, a dog-shaped rock, spectacular Middleton Beach and even an
old whaling station, now a museum. It is also the home of the HMAS
Perth wreck that was deliberately sunk as a recreational dive site in
King George Sound.
