About Marlborough NZ
The Marlborough region of New Zealand enjoys high sunshine hours and a temperate climate. Marlborough is also the largest wine growing region in New Zealand, and is known for its sauvignon blanc. With over 40 cellar doors, this is a great location to stop and sample some of the local wines or do a wine tour.
Picton
The Port of Picton is situated at the head of Queen Charlotte Sound, one of three sounds which make up the Marlborough Sounds. Queen Charlotte Sound is the busiest of the three sounds, as it is the main thoroughfare for the Interislander Ferries, which provide passenger and car transport to and from Wellington.
Picton is also home to the Coastal Pacific Train Journey, which travels between the delightful port of Picton and Christchurch.
Visitors choose Picton as a base for exploring the Marlborough Sounds. Activities on offer include:
- Swimming with dolphins
- Visiting bird sanctuary islands
- Cruising the sounds
- Hiking the Queen Charlotte Track
