Distinguished and Famous people from Jurien Bay
⚓ Captain Hamelin
French naval commander Jacques Félix Emmanuel Hamelin sailed the Naturaliste along this coast in 1801 as part of the expedition led by Nicolas Baudin. The voyage contributed European charts and names, including Jurien Bay and the nearby mounts Lesueur and Peron. The bay was named for naval administrator Charles Marie Jurien, rather than for someone who settled there. Hamelin’s connection is the recorded coastal passage and surveying expedition, within country already known to Aboriginal people. Those names preserve one chapter of the coast’s navigational history.
