Harbours for Shipping in New Zealand
Generally, different zones offer distinctly different aspects for interested groups to experience.

With KANES, interested groups discover the importance of shipping harbours. 

We learn why harbour locations were hard to find, we investigate various examples based on different geography that made them useful and easy to maintain. We explore the successes and demise of various coastal settlements.

We examine the advantages and problems of each type of harbour.

Military Protection
Some guests are keen to explore facilities that were placed to protect the harbour and its settlement from invasion.  In the past these were considered necessary and many are still in place for interested groups to explore.
