Cruise from Emu Point to the sheltered waters of Oyster Harbour and up the ancient Kalgan River. Hear stories of Albany's history and colorful commentary on topics ranging from local birdlife to wildflowers and poetry.
The river's estuary is home to a large population of birds, and some of the state's largest bream have been caught here. You may spot a giant eagle ray -- a cousin of the manta ray. They grow up to 17 feet in length and weigh upwards of 500 lbs. They leap out of the water on occasion but are not aggressive.
Enjoy a billy tea and damper bread -- two traditional tastes from Downunder.
Please note: Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed.
