  • Milford Sound Shuo Yang (3940194) Brock University
    Pre-departure Destination Brief: Milford Sound Shuo Yang (3940194) Brock University Milford Sound, New Zealand Instructor: Dr. Dave Brown Course: TREN3F94 Ecological Regions and Tourism Destinations in New Zealand Due: Feb, 18 th , 2010 Introduction Milford Sound ( Piopiotahi in Māori) is a fjord on the south west coast of the South Island within Fiordland National Park and the Te Wahipounamu World Heritage site in New Zealand (Inglis, Gust, Kospartov, Peacock, 2008). It has been described by Rudyard Kipling as the ‘eighth wonder of the world’ (Transit New Zealand, 2007). The valley walls drop steeply to water depths, especially Mitre Peak, has been one of the most well-known tourism icons (Becken, 2005). Its unique natural attractions, many wildlife, and marine biota attract a huge number of tourists to visit Milford Sound on annual basis. For example, Visitor numbers to Milford Sound / Piopiotahi have grown from 247,000 in 1992 to approximately 470,000 in the 2004 /2005 season (Fiordland National Park Management Plan, 2007). The rate of growth continues over the life of management plan (Fiordland National Park Management Plan, 2007). Indeed, economically, the large influx of tourists can definitely contribute to the increment of local revenue. Nevertheless, the increase in commercial and tourists activity in Milford Sound has put ever greater pressure on its natural character and landscape, wildlife and marine biota (Sirota, 2006). Sirota (2006) has also pointed out that perceptions of natural landscape and wilderness values are attenuated when synergies are formed between commercial tourist vessels, air traffic, high road usage and large influxes of visitors within a confined area.
