Oceania & Pacific Islands

Middleton Beach was named after Captain Middleton in 1934. Captain Middleton is an ancestor of Kate Middleton now married to Prince William and proud mother of Prince George. He brought Governor James Stirling to Western Australia. It is the main swimming beach for Albany and offers swimming and recreational beach activities. The waters are protected by King George Sound; the Southern Ocean's waves do not usually reach these sheltered waters. Middleton Beach has a jetty, and in summer a pontoon (a floating construction that can hold many swimmers) is placed in the ocean for delight and fun of swimmers Nearby you can find Three Anchors.Three Anchors is a new restaurant/bar/kiosk/art gallery and meeting room. A new venue for peeps to chill with a beer, good food whilst watching the waves roll in. http://albanyregion.com.au/middletonbeach
