The Albany Adventure – A perfect 10!

When you hear the place name Albany, what do you think of? The whaling station, farmers markets, the Anzacs, its rich military history, the blowholes. Well, you are correct, classically Albany is known for all of these. But when was the last time you enjoyed some time away in the Port City? We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised as to how far this, once outpost, has come. The Albany of today epitomizes a community awash with local music, the arts and exceptional local produce, a testament to the posters and flyers of local artists and growers in the port’s pubs and restaurants. This is a town no longer out to prove itself; Albany has arrived as the leading cultural hub of the South West.

Holiday in one of 6 self-contained two-bedroom units for you to enjoy. Each unit sleeps four adults (one queen room, two single beds), with casual bedding available for an additional two (child) guests. The units are located on Middleton Beach, directly opposite the waterfront and park, a short stroll to cafés and restaurants. The units are all fitted with the usual mod cons, with private bathrooms, modern toilets, a laundry facility with washing machine and dryer, digital TV’s, reverse cycle air-conditioning and a fully equipped kitchen, a gas BBQ. (Porta cots and high chairs are available if required for our very little guests).

Walking is a great way to see the best of the hub of the south west of Western Australia. Take advantage of the warm weather and explore Albany and its surrounds, with so many geographical attractions in the south west area, the experience is only augmented by the Mediterranean style climate which is typified by the warm summer nights. You can even explore secluded beach opposite your unit, with the Albany shoreline affectionately referred to as the Rainbow Coast, you’ll know why when you see it. The historical presence of Albany is one of the many charms of the South West Port City. King George sound is a large ocean inlet that surrounds Albany. It covers a vast 110sqm and is 35 metres at its deepest point. The sound also has two harbours located within it - Princess Royal Harbour and Oyster Harbour. A few of the all-time classic places to visit while you’re in Albany are the Natural Bridge, The Gap, and the Blowholes. If you haven’t visited them, you haven’t been to Albany! It would be like going to Paris without going to see the Eiffel Tower! This stunning coastline city has many attractions to occupy you for days and it’s a great base from which you can explore the South West Region (including Margaret River, Eagle Bay, and Augusta).

Albany’s city centre is based around the main thoroughfare of York Street and sits on the northern edge of Princess Royal Harbour, which is part of King George Sound. The central district of Albany is overlooked by Mt Clarence to the east and Mt Melville to the west. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Albany was a gateway to the Eastern Goldfields and for decades was Australia’s only deep-water port, giving it a place of prominence on shipping services between Britain and its colonies. However, the construction of Fremantle Harbour near Perth in 1893 saw Albany’s importance as a port rapidly decline, so the town turned primarily to agriculture, timber and later whaling to support its economy. Albany also has an important role in the Anzac legend as it was where the fleet which comprised of approximately 20,000 Australians and 10,000 New Zealanders assembled and departed for Egypt on November 1, 1914. The strong sense of military history is tied to Albany, with troops leaving from Albany for World War 1, a memorial to the Desert Mounted Corps sits atop Mt Clarence, the memorial is a 9-metre bronze statue of an Australian mounted soldier assisting a New Zealand soldier whose horse has been wounded with an impressive military museum which will easily fill a full day as there is many things to do and see.
Western Australia is synonymous with its beautiful beaches and conversely its red, arid deserts, but usually completely separate from each other. Albany has a mix of both settings, with the cooling ocean to the west and the enigmatic beauty of national parks and eco reserves close by. There are numerous coves and secluded beaches to explore, as the wash of the waves extends out into the Southern Ocean. The world-renowned Cottesloe Beach in Perth boasts some of the most serene bluey green hue to the water, conversely the silver shine to the ocean waters off Albany is something to be witnessed and much different from anything experienced in the state's capital.

Many a nation, including; America, Britain, and France have whaled from the port city, with the industry peaking in 1845. In its prime whaling days, Albany had 300 ships from various countries docking along Australia’s southwest coast. The numbers of vessels started to decline after 1859 when the oil boom called ships home to the Americas. The deep-water port which famously witnessed the birth and death of the whaling industry is still a hub of activity, but the town is more about tourism, and the welcome mat is out.

Perhaps the most welcome addition to the town in recent years has been the boom on the local dining scene. Fine dining and variety are usually hallmarks of capital cities; however, Albany puts its exceptional local produce to work with extensive options for diners. York Street has become famous for its Souvlaki lunch, and you can also grab a vintage ale to take away from one of the local breweries on Stirling Terrace. The spice trade is also alive and kicking, partnered with odes to classic traditions and the arts. The town hall holds photographic exhibitions and the local haunts are welcoming and open till late, with the tunes going well into the night.

If a generous, restful night’s sleep is more your speed then retire to your unit with a view. Fall asleep to the soothing sounds of rolling waves, as the tides of the southern ocean lap up onto Middleton beach. If you’re an early riser you’ll be in for a treat, with inspiring sunrises enticing your inner photographer. Whether you’re photographing the catch of the day, capturing your peace of serenity at Torndirrup national park or picking a vantage point on the peninsula, there are a myriad of photogenic perch’s and subjects.

A trip to the foreshore reveals another piece of Australian history, a replica of the brig Amity is on display to explore. The original Amity sailed from Sydney on 9th November 1826, carrying a party under the command of Major Edmund Lockyer, who had orders to form a settlement at King George Sound. The building of the replica began in 1975 under the careful eye of local boat builder Stan Austin. Other local craftsmen joined the team, with the aim of making the replica the focal point of celebrations of the 150th anniversary of the brig's arrival. When you visit this full-size replica, try to imagine more than 50 men, together with stores, sheep and pigs, sharing this small vessel in a difficult journey taking over six weeks. The Amity replica is open from 9.30am to 4pm daily, located at Albany Historical Precinct, off Princess Royal Drive, Albany.
