William Dampier is most remembered for his negative opinion of Australia.
Dampier was unimpressed by the dry, barren landscape, the lack of water and what he described as the "miserablest people in the world" - the native population. His negative reports led to the delay of England's colonisation of what is now Australia.
William Dampier was on the Cygnet when he first reached Western Australia's shores.
Dampier is a major industrial port in the northwest of Western Australia. The Dampier Port is part of the Dampier Archipelago.
