Discover the Magic of Albany from the Water
There is no better way to experience summer in Albany than by boat. Albany is home to pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and some of the most beautiful bays in Australia. Feel the fresh sea breeze in your hair as we cruise through the historic waters of Princess Royal Harbour and King George Sound. 🌊
Step back in time as we explore Albany’s rich maritime history. Imagine the first explorers arriving in 1627, or the first ANZAC troops departing for WWI in 1914. We will get up close to the historic Whaling Station in Frenchman Bay and the shipwreck of the Cheynes II, a 440-tonne steam whale chaser that is a photographer’s dream! 📸
Your Personalised Boutique Cruise
Our vessel, the “Young Salty Dog”, is a safe and stable twin-hull catamaran (an ex-Sea Rescue vessel). With a maximum of just 12 passengers, Captain Mark Muscat provides a highly personalised and intimate tour of the harbour and King George Sound.
What You Will See Along the Way:
- Stunning Coastal Landmarks: Navigate through the Ataturk Channel, past Point King Lighthouse, Point Possession, and view the ANZAC Centre on Mount Clarence from the sea.
