Lonely Planet review for Whale World Museum
The Whale World Museum, 21km from Albany, is based in Frenchman’s Bay at Cheynes Beach Whaling Station, which closed in November 1978. There’s the rusting Cheynes IV whale chaser and station equipment to inspect outside. The museum screens several 3-D gore-spattered films and other films about whaling operations, and displays harpoons, whaleboat models and scrimshaw (etchings on whalebone). There are free guided tours on the hour.
