Description
Cruise ship "Ovation of the Seas" passing through Milford Sound in New Zealand's Fiordland.
Fiordland is a geographic region of New Zealand in the south-western corner of the South Island, comprising the western-most third of Southland. Most of Fiordland is dominated by the steep sides of the snow-capped Southern Alps, deep lakes, and its steep, glacier-carved and now ocean-flooded western valleys. The name "Fiordland" comes from a variant spelling of the Scandinavian word for this type of steep valley, "fjord". The area of Fiordland is dominated by, and very roughly coterminous with, Fiordland National Park, New Zealand's largest National Park.
As it was Summer, very little snow on the surrounding mountains.
MS Ovation of the Seas is a cruise ship operating for Royal Caribbean International (RCI). It is 168666 gross tonnage and carries over 4,000 passengers.
