Gateway to the South Island
Picton is the capital of the Marlborough Sounds and the gateway to the South Island. So why not settle in this delightful town for a few days after your ferry crossing from Wellington to discover what the area has to offer. For a start, you are surrounded by meandering Fjords, pencil-thin peninsulas and unspoilt islands that represent one fifth of New Zealand’s coastline. So plenty of natural beauty and cruises to experience – not to mention water sports such as scuba diving and kayaking. Then there’s New Zealand’s greatest wine region on your doorstep at Marlborough. With its numerous world-class vineyards and sparkling rivers, that alone is worth spending several days to inspect.
