We Almost Missed the Ship for the World's Steepest Street!

Join Ericka and me for an unforgettable, action-packed port day in Dunedin, New Zealand! If you are planning a New Zealand cruise and docking at Port Chalmers, this is everything you need to know about exploring the Otago Peninsula and the heart of downtown Dunedin. We start our shore excursion getting up close with New Zealand's incredible coastal beauty, spotting a wild seal on the rugged, remote sands of Allan Beach. After checking out local highlights like the famous painted bus stops and the entirely enclosed Forsyth Barr Stadium, we decided to break away from our tour group to tackle a massive physical challenge. With the clock ticking down to our all-aboard time on the Celebrity Edge, we hiked through the historic University of Otago campus and the stunning Dunedin Botanic Garden to conquer our ultimate goal: Baldwin Street, the steepest residential street in the world. Taking a breather at Hooper's Step at the top was a massive victory, but racing miles back across town to catch the very last shuttle to Port Chalmers was the ultimate stress test! We cap off this epic port day by sailing past the Taiaroa Head Northern Royal Albatross sanctuary, taking in the massive seabirds from our cruise ship windows and live webcams as we head back out to sea.
