Melody cruise from Cape Town gets going

MSC Sinfonia leaving Cape Town Harbour, with Table Mountain in the background

December 2012. It's reported that the Transnet National Port Authority will, in 2013, proceed with a "request for proposals" to build a permanent cruise liner terminal at E-Berth in Cape Town harbour.

March 2012 South Africa's Department of Home Affairs moves aheads with its January directive to stop cruise ships from docking at Cape Town's V&A Waterfront. “For twenty years, security and immigration procedures have been managed without incident at Jetty Two. Out of nowhere, Home Affairs suddenly enforced a ban without an alternative tourist-friendly facility within the port. Tourists now have to dock amongst containers at a cold storage yard. This is no way to receive guests to our province.” says Alan Winde, Western Cape Minister of Economic Development & Tourism.

Nkosazna Dlamini-Zuma, SA's Minister of Home Affairs, has ignore Winde's requests for a meeting. In her absence, Tariq Mellet, Director: Immigration Services, Western Cape, says that “There has been no recent decision to ban anything. A long-standing problem of non-compliance with the Immigration Act required the department to take steps in November to ensure compliance.”

  • 2013. Catharina cruises from Cape Town to St Helena Island : "We were amazed at the rich history the island has and the tourist highlights we managed to see in the short time we had available."

Tugs & pilot boats

Key an eye out in the harbour for the tugs & pilot boats. Always interesting to watch them bend into the wind & the waves crash onto their decks, as their brave crew assist ships in and out of the harbour
