Community: Port Boat Tour Delights with Shipping Movements and Dolphin Sightings

Last Sunday, Lyttelton Port Company hosted one of its populated monthly boat tours, offering attendees a unique insight into LPC operations.

65 people attended the tour and got to see the Antarctic vessel Araon, navy HMNZS Canterbury, and container vessel Moana Chief.

Environmental and Sustainability Business Partner Kirsty Brennan led the tour and shared her extensive knowledge about the port and its operations.

Tour attendees were particularly intrigued by the arrival of a bulk cargo vessel carrying stock feed, with the skipper taking the microphone to elaborate on the shipping movement.

Guests were also treated to a dolphin sighting.

This event continues to underline LPC’s commitment to engaging the community and promoting awareness of maritime activities’ vital role in the region.
