A first date idea
Whale watching from the shore
Albany's whale season runs from June to October. Humpbacks are most often seen from June to August and southern right whales from August to October. Try the Marine Drive lookouts, Ellen Cove Boardwalk or Little Beach, and on many days you will not need binoculars.
