Queen Mary II visits Walvis Bay

The Queen Mary II, along with numerous other passenger vessels, docked for a day in the Walvis Bay harbour. This marked the Queen Mary II’s second visit in a span of three months. This massive vessel is hosting 2 691 passengers and 1 173 crew members. With the various visits by passenger liners, it brings in a much-needed boost for local tourism, as was clearly seen with local vendors displaying their crafts and local tour operators ready to take the tourists to visit the sights. The Queen Mary II has since departed for Gran Canaria, Canary Islands. Expected in the Port of Walvis Bay on 19 are the Resilient Lady and the Zuiderdam on 20 April. Photo Leandrea Mouers
