Princess Royal Harbour is a part of King George Sound on the South Coast Western Australia, and harbour to Albany.

On its northern shore is the Port of Albany. The first European to explore the waters was George Vancouver in September 1791; he named the harbour after Princess Charlotte Augusta Matilda.

The harbour was surveyed by Matthew Flinders in 1802, Jules Dumont d'Urville in 1826, John Lort Stokes in 1848, and Henry Mangles Denham in 1858.[1]

The harbour was less than two metres deep until it was dredged in 1901,[2] and its entrance was dredged in 1952.[3]

Water quality has been tested and monitored over time.[4][5][6] The harbour is the location of a seagrass meadow of Posidonia.[7]

The Princess Royal Harbour was the departure location for a large convoy of Australian troops in November 1914.[8][9]

The entrance to the harbour was named Atatürk Channel in 1985 (for Mustafa Kemal Atatürk);[10] it is also known as Atatürk Entrance.[11][12][13]

The name Princess Royal also appears in Albany in Princess Royal Fortress and Princess Royal Drive.
