Whichever way you arrive in Lyttelton, by the Port Hills scenic route via Sumner, or through the road tunnel, it is quite an exciting delivery and will, along with the deeply contrasting scenery, provide a pleasant sense of escape from the city buzz and the flat vistas of Christchurch. Lying on the northern shores of the volcanic crater that now forms the Lyttleton Harbour, this busy characterful port has an air of history, befitting its stature as the place where the ‘first four ships’ arrived in 1850. It was also the port that Captain Scott and Lieutenant Shackleton used as their base to explore the Antarctic.
