Desert Mounted Corps Memorial

Reviewed By barcelonaAustralia - Perth, Australia

Well done to the planners who planned this memorial as the walk up to it via the stairs is a moving experience. For those who are unable to climb the stairs you can drive and park at the top. With views over the harbour where the ships departed this is impressive.

Replica of the Brig Amity

Reviewed By chrislC5355JP - Tallebudgera, Australia

We went on board The Amity and a very nice man offered us a brief history of its travels and then we took the $5 option and equipped with headphones, investigated the below deck. You need to not be claustrophobic and be able to bend and climb! But overall we enjoyed the experience very much.

Albany Wind Farm

Reviewed By Q9788TAlisas - Wembley, Australia

I wasn't sure i wanted to visit this place, but I'm definitely glad I did. I loved the little random plaques with local noongah information, random quotes as well as the information about the windmills. The wild flowers were lovely and the views were spectacular....i highly recommend visiting for beautiful sunset.
