Albany is located on the South West tip of WA and the area is referred to as the Great Southern. With stunning beaches and two major rivers it has much to offer the sightseer. Somerset is only meters from the central location and is handy to most local attractions.
The Great Southern is renown for its diversity of flora and fauna and amazing vistas.
The region has a milder climate than Perth with cooler summers and cooler winters. The best time to visit is between January and July when the Southerly winds are at their minimum.
Enjoy the peace of quiet and yet indulge in the amazing local food and fine wines that this region is becoming known for.
Art is also well represented and you can find many excellent and unique masterpieces. The key is to know where to go and research the area before arriving. Ask the Albany Visitor Centre for details or discover the maps at Somerset to help you enjoy this diverse and unique region.
