Princess is also Continuing to call there but will have call to Lyttelton too.

Good for them, it is worth visiting still.

Last night's episode of Coast New Zealand had a really interesting section on the history of Akaroa, and watching it was just lovely - brought back great memories.

I agree Beejay.  Was there in March and visited the penguin sanctuary as shown last night.  Just booked the tour on a whim when I went ashore.  Too late in the year for many penguins but still a few there moulting.  Lovely people. 

 

The first time in Akaroa  last year I did the cruise on the Fox II, the red sailed ketch featured.  Brilliant and the cruise people were so informative and friendly. 

 

Hope they don't drop Akaroa permanently.  I love the place.  Coast NZ is a brilliant show.

Agree, Coast is wonderful.
