From around May to October, Humpback, Southern Right and occasionally rare Blue Whales can be seen in Albany’s waters where they frolic, mate and calve. Dolphins and seals can be seen all year round. Seeing whales is their priority on this Safari.

Albany’s waters are steeped in history. Imagine what it would have been like when the first explorers arrived as early as 1627 or when the first ANZAC troops departed Albany for World War I in 1914. Cast yourself back in time to the days of the old whaling ships and see the old Whaling Station and a shipwrecked Whale Chaser, the Cheynes II which broke its moorings and ran aground. It’s incredible to view up close and a photographer’s favourite.

They pass Camp Quaranup, an old quarantine station and navigate through Ataturk Channel, past Point King Lighthouse and Point Possession. View the ANZAC Centre on Mount Clarence from the sea. Out in King George Sound, you’ll gaze in awe at the beautiful turquoise waters of Mistaken Island. Pristine white beaches that can be seen include Brambles, Whaling Cove/Fisheries, Ledge, Gull Rock, Goodes and Middleton Beach.

Captain Mark will educate and entertain with his commentary and local knowledge.
