Albany

4.4
Geologic Formations · Specialty Museums · Beaches
Founded as a military outpost in 1826, Albany is the oldest town in Western Australia, just barely gaining this title by being settled two years earlier than Fremantle and Perth. The downtown area still retains its colonial charm, and there you'll find Victorian architecture. The climate is a perfect blend of dryness and humidity for cultivating grapevines, so sample a few glasses of the region's wine after touring the Victorian streets.  To personalize your trip to Albany, create itinerary details specific to you using our Australia road trip tool.

    Where to stay in Albany

    The Gap and Natural Bridge ©
    While virtually free of large hotels, Albany does offer visitors a vast selection of guesthouses, motels, and rental apartments. Many of these are conveniently within the city center, perfect for sightseeing. If you prefer to stay closer to the beaches and a bit farther from the center, the suburbs of Middleton Beach and Emu Point are the places to go. Also on the coast, the Collingwood Park area is the best choice for golfers, with the 18-hole Albany Golf Course just around the corner.
