Albany, Port town in Western Australia, Australia
The settlement stretches along Princess Royal Harbour and King George Sound, forming the southernmost seaport of Western Australia at 418 kilometers from Perth.
The British military established a permanent colonial presence in December 1826, initiating the first European settlement in Western Australia under the name Frederick Town.
The Minang Noongar Aboriginal people maintained seasonal patterns, dwelling near the harbor during summers and moving inland throughout winter months.
The regional center connects to Perth through regular airline services, while the harbor supports fishing, agriculture, and tourism industries throughout the year.
Between May and October, the waters near Albany become a gathering point for humpback and southern right whales during their annual migration.
