Albany, WA, Information
Albany is a port city
located in the Great
Southern Region of Western
Australia, 390 km. (244 miles) south-east of Perth,
the state capital.
The city was founded in January 1827 as a military outpost of New South Wales as
part of a plan to forestall French ambition in the region.
During the late nineteenth and early twentieth century's the town served as a
gateway to the Eastern
Goldfields and for many years was the colony's only deep water port, having a
place of eminence on shipping services between Britain and its Australian
colonies.
Today the town of Albany has a place of significance as a tourist destination and base
from which to explore the south west of the state and is well regarded for its
natural beauty and preservation of heritage.
