A whale that washed up dead on a beach in Victoria's far east is not the famed albino humpback Migaloo, authorities have confirmed.
The white carcass was found at a Mallacoota beach in the state's East Gippsland region, near the NSW border, and is only accessible by water.
Victoria's environment department has allayed fears it is Migaloo, who has not been spotted for two years after losing his tracking chip.
