The Albany 'Ocean Giants Lookout Kit' has everything you need for land-based whale watching along the spectacular Albany coastline of the Southern Ocean. The kit includes general information about whales and their behaviour, together with a map of prime lookout locations including: Whale World, Sandpatch, Rotary Lookout, Bremer Bay (John Cove) and Point Ann.
The 'Ocean Giants Lookout Kit' is an environmental tourism initiative of the Western Australian Tourism Commission which gives you the opportunity to help protect one of the world's most magnificent animals by recording your sightings of Humpback and Southern Right whales. It is available from the Albany Visitor Centre, Whale World and other outlets.
Sandpatch, 20 mins from Albany Centre, is also the location of a new wind farm and a recently upgraded boardwalk and lookout on the State's premier walk trail - the Bibbulmun Track, which runs nearly 1000kms from Perth to Albany.
