Top Albany Half-day Tours

Sail around the sheltered waters of Oyster Harbour and the Kalgan River on this half-day scenic cruise aboard a glass-bottom vessel. Learn about the area’s history and wildlife and find out why Albany is home to the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC). Spot wildlife such as hawks, eagles, pelicans, and kangaroos.

Discover Porongurup National Park on this guided tour from Albany. Once there, head to Castle Rock, which involves a 2.6-mile (4.2-kilometer) walk that requires a moderate level of fitness. To reach the summit, scramble over rocks and climb an enclosed ladder to the Granite Skywalk to catch the Southern Ocean views. Reward yourself with a stop at a local winery and enjoy the regional foods and wine of Western Australia.

This half-day scenic wildlife cruise takes you from Albany to Green Island—a pelican-breeding ground that was once WA’s first vegetable garden—and across the Kalgan River, where you’ll swap your boat for a motorized wagon to go kangaroo-spotting. Offering a fun Albany-style take on a wildlife safari, you’ll also learn all about the history and wildlife of the region with an entertaining commentary from your guide.
