About

Enjoy the 30min journey out of the city centre of Albany to the Torndirrup National Park. Stop in at Misery Beach, which has a story connected to whaling in the past. Then, enter into Albany's Historic Whaling Station, the only station open to the public in the world. See Australia’s south coast whaling story come to life. Climb aboard a famous whale chaser to experience life on board an actual whaling ship, and learn from movies, photos, and artifact galleries. You will marvel at the enormous whale skeletons on display. Relax with morning tea/coffee and cake overlooking the ocean. Your 30min journey back to Albany, curves around Princess Royal Harbour to where you started.
