Diving at HMAS Perth Wreck

Attractions

King George Sound, Albany, WA

Description

The former HMAS Perth guided missile destroyer was scuttled in 35m of water in King George Sound in November 2001.

Serving in the Royal Australian Navy, the HMAS Perth sailed more than a million nautical miles in deployments around the world. The vessel was damaged by enemy fire in the Vietnam conflict. Thankfully, no one was injured as the shell punctured the vessel but failed to explode.

The 133m destroyer now provides divers with a wonderful opportunity to explore its underwater interiors.
