Middleton Beach

Middleton Beach is a 5-kilometre white sandy beach on King George Sound in Albany, Western Australia, about 4 kilometres east of the city centre. Sheltered by the sound, it is known for calm, clear waters at Ellen Cove, a long foreshore promenade and views to islands and headlands. A long-established seaside recreation area, it offers swimming, walking and family-friendly facilities and is one of Albany's most popular beaches.

Visitors can expect a long, wide stretch of white sand curving along King George Sound with generally calm waters, especially at the sheltered Ellen Cove at the southern end. The foreshore has a paved promenade and boardwalk, grassed picnic areas, and views across the sound to King George Sound islands and headlands. The beach is suitable for swimming, walking, photography and relaxing, with cafes, restaurants and accommodation nearby and easy access from Albany city centre.
