ALBANY WESTERN AUSTRALIA

Albany in Western Australia has a lot to offer the traveling and camping public.
Albany is on the state's southern coast and is about 408 km from Perth via the Albany Highway.
Albany has historic sites, magnificent coastal scenery, nature reserves, rivers and ranges.
The City of Albany council has established numerous camping areas within the shire along it's beautiful coastline.
Activities include camping (tents, caravans, mobile homes, RV's )boating, fishing, swimming, bush walking, sightseeing to keep you well and truly occupied whilst visiting the area.
Albany also has a small airport for visitors flying in from Perth.  Hire cars are available and there are numerous caravan parks, bed and breakfast, hotel and motel accommodation.  Holiday times find Albany a very popular destination so it is best to book in advance if you are intending to visit Albany.
There are lots camping areas west of Albany for the self sufficient camper to visit.
One of our favorite areas'  is Betty's Beach.  Betty's  Beach is about 52km north east of  Albany along the South Coast Highway, then 14km on the Homestead Road down to the camping area.
The beach sand is so clean it squeaks  when walked  on.  A beautiful little bay and not bad fishing either.
Another area close by (if Betty Beach is already full) is Norman Beach.
Our last visit was in October 2009.  The tide was out when this photo taken.  High tide the ocean comes up to the rocks.
