Cruise passengers have been delighted by the range of activities on offer in and around Whangārei and local businesses have declared the 2024 ‘mini’ cruise season, spanning February and March, a success.
These were the first scheduled cruise visits to Whangārei-terenga-parāoa. First into the harbour and to tie up at Northport on Sunday February 4 was the cruise ship ‘Regatta’ with about 604 passengers on board. She was met in the golden light of dawn with a water cannon salute by tugs opposite the Whangārei Heads, before a pōwhiri conducted by hapū Patuharakeke.
