Le Bougainville Passenger Ship Berths in Durban

Le Bougainville Passenger Ship Berths in Durban

Le Bougainville Passenger Ship Berths in Durban: and that makes two in a row! This morning, the spectacular sight of a tourist-laden passenger ship again greeted the Durban Beachfront.

Again!

“LE BOUGAINVILLE (IMO: 9814040) is a Passenger Ship and is sailing under the flag of Wallis Futuna Is. Her length overall (LOA) is 131.46 meters and her width is 18 meters.” – Marine Traffic (link below)

MSC Musica

Well, that was a short stay! And man-oh-man but do these ships cover ground! The MSC Musica is past Richards Bay already on her way north already!

Luckily we have Adam Kamdar of Township Hyper, right on the spot…over to Adam with today’s conditions and prospects for the days coming up…

Sardines and Sighting Maps

It has been a fantastic sardine run this memorable 2024. And all the action has been logged right here on The Sardine News. This year’s map has been viewed 191,000 times and just keeps growing.

Which led us to decide to keep the map live. And keep adding unique marine animal sightings and events. That occurs non-stop all year round. This year we started to log more whale and dolphin sightings. And we even had a shipwreck! And a freaking tornado! And recently a capsized KZNSB boat! We have been updating the map with recent catches too…

These events will from now on be included in the Sardine News Sightings Map for 2024. And on the 1 January 2025, we shall start all over again.

Here are the links to existing and past Sardine Sighting Maps. Great for a windy day like today to research. With instructions to install The Sardine News right on your phone or desktop.
