Two Peoples Bay Nature Reserve
Two Peoples Bay is a protected area 35 kilometres (22 mi) east of Albany. The area is accessible by 2WD vehicles. The bay itself, including two small secluded beaches, faces due east and is protected from the Southern Ocean by a headland formed by the granite massif of Mount Gardiner. The nature reserve was established in 1967 to protect the threatened Noisy Scrub-bird and its habitat.
