Story

Wellington Harbour ist der große Naturhafen an der Südspitze der Nordinsel Neuseelands. Die neuseeländische Hauptstadt Wellington liegt an seiner Westseite. Der Hafen hieß offiziell Port Nicholson, in den 1980er Jahren erhielt er seinen heutigen Namen.In der Sprache der Māori heißt der Hafen Te Whanganui-a-Tara (der große Hafen von Tara). Die Bezeichnung der Māori für Wellington, Pōneke, soll eine Transliteration von Port Nick sein, dies ist jedoch umstritten.GeografieDer Wellington Harbour ist ein 70 km² großer Arm der Cookstraße mit einer 2 km breiten Einfahrt am Südende zwischen Pencarrow Head und der Miramar Peninsula.Der Hafen ist durch seismische Aktivitäten entstanden. Eine bedeutende seismische Störzone verläuft an seinem Westufer. Am Nordende des Hafens liegt die nahezu dreieckige Ebene des Hutt Valley, der dieser Störzone über weite Strecken nach Nordosten folgt. Die Stadt Lower Hutt liegt auf dieser Ebene.Die Vorstädte der Hauptstadt breiten sich über die Hügel westlich und südwestlich des Hafens und um seine zwei großen Buchten, Lambton Harbour und Evans Bay, aus. Lambton Harbour ist von dem aus dem Meer gewonnenen Land des zentralen Geschäftsviertels von Wellington umgeben und beherbergt den größten Teil der Hafenanlagen der Stadt. Evans Bay ist ein Meeresarm zwischen dem Mount Victoria und der Miramar Peninsula, sie dient als Anflugstrecke für den tiefliegenden Flughafen Wellington. Eine weitere, kleine, aber wegen ihrer Strände und Cafés bekannte Bucht ist die Oriental Bay.

Love to wander along the harbour. If looking for really good restaurant can't go past Dockside. Superb food $$$
This Harbour has a lot going on as well as a few plaques to remind us all about the history it. This is a really huge Harbour and that it has a place where people can ride their boats on the water and also on the dock that you can ride your bike. There was a few things going on like some Kongo music and some food vendors.
In emerald embrace, the city it holds, Wellington's harbour, a story unfolds. Zealandia's heart, with hills as its frame, Mirrored in waters, a whisper of fame. White sails unfurl, like gulls taking flight, Dancing on ripples in morning's first light. Ferries chug by, in a rhythmic ballet, Connecting the shores, where stories are met. From bustling quays, to bays calm and serene, A harbour alive, a vibrant marine. Kayaks like dragonflies skim on the blue, While yachts, white and proud, pierce the horizon anew. At dusk, the city lights paint the scene gold, As the harbour whispers secrets, both ancient and bold. So come, take a walk, by the water's sweet sigh, Let Wellington's harbour, enchant you and I.
saw someone saw someone saw someone saw someone saw someone push someone into the water, that someone who I saw who saw someone see someone push someone into the water couldn't stop laughing
Beautiful area for a walk or to stop for lunch at the many cafés/restaurants. Lots of adventures available such as cruises, helicopter rides, a playground for children to papa museum a short walk away which offers hours of entertainment and learning.
Got on a boat here with my zoomie
I pushed someone in the water, they got mad. 5/5 would give 5 if I could
saw someone watching someone getting pushed into the water. got splashed, everyone got mad.
WH is a busy place with both commercial and leisure maritime activities on the water itself, plus associated port and recreational activities on the land side. The Wellington Waterfront stretch is the most popular, public part within the city and comprises Queens Wharf, the Walkway, Te Horo section and Clyde Quay. From here the waterfront continues along the ever-so-popular Oriental Parade with its marina, beaches, playgrounds and beyond. Across the harbour you will find boating and other water activities from various water-sport clubs all over greater Wellington, especially once winter is over. At the heart of all WH activity is the traffic from cargo, cruise ships and the ferries Bluebridge, Interislander, East-by-West. WH is constrained by the surrounding hills on the landward side.
I saw someone who saw someone who was watching someone push someone in the water funny times.
