Akaroa and the seal colony safari
Photos of Akaroa and a tour we did with Akaroa Seal Colony Safari
Akaroa is a picturesque port on the East coast of the South Island of New Zealand. It was a French town and still has some of the French influence. We took a tour with Paul Le Lievre

New Zealand Fur Seals Resting, Playing on Rocks, lagoons at Akaroa
Akaroa Harbour is host to amazing bird life and sea mammals, including the world's rarest and smallest dolphin, the friendly Hector's dolphin. You'll also see fur seals sunbathing on the rocks, little blue penguins, marine salmon and paua pearl farms and a variety of fascinating sea birds.
The trip was organized by KUC (Kelab UMNO Christchurch). 10 members of KUC participated in the amazing event which was held on 17th of March 2012. It took the members 1 hour of driving to reach Akaroa, which is around 80km from the University of Canterbury where the members are currently studying. Each member paid $120 NZ dollar for the boat hire plus fishing gear fees and friendly service by the boat owner Hugh, and his mate, Steven.
KUC paided the cost of the petrol which was around $90NZD.
Overall, The experience was really priceless because the Members got to see with their own eyes, Hector dolphins playing, a penguin, New Zealand Fur Seals bathing in the sun and playing with each other plus the members managed to reel in a total of 9 fishes some are which quite expensive at the local market.
I would like to personally thanks the Project manager of the trip Alif Md Zainudin who is also the Vice President of KUC.
1 Malaysia!
