Navy Ships to Visit Home Ports for ANZAC Weekend

Navy Ships to Visit Home Ports for ANZAC Weekend

As part of the Royal New Zealand Navy’s (RNZN) 75th Anniversary and Anzac Day commemorations, seven ships will visit their affiliated home ports.

These visits are an important opportunity to share with the community the broad range of activities that the Navy undertakes and how it contributes to the security and prosperity of New Zealand.

The public will be able to find out more about the Navy of today and the service our men and women give to their country through a range of events.

In addition to the Anzac Day port visits, a special Navy 75th TV documentary will screen on TVNZ at 10am on 25 April featuring the deployments of HMNZ Ships TE KAHA and WELLINGTON during 2015.

Anzac weekend port visits itinerary:

• HMNZS OTAGO to visit Dunedin

• HMNZS ROTOITI to visit Whangarei

• HMNZS HAWEA to visit Tauranga

• HMNZS MANAWANUI to visit Whitianga
