Marlborough

With its fresh seafood, award-winning wines and picturesque coves, Marlborough reaches out to those who appreciate the good things in life.

Forming the top of the South Island, the Marlborough region is blessed with scenic waterways, emerald islands and mild weather. Meet winegrowers, sailors and fishermen in hidden little towns such as Blenheim, Picton and Havelock. Cruise along the scenic Marlborough Sounds and order fat mussels, clams, crabs and oysters for a taste of the ocean. Wash it all down with a glass of sav blanc, served chilled to match your mood.

We knew Marlborough had great wines, but didn't know about its salt. Seawater is pumped onto the land to dry and it turns pink from algae and shrimp. (It'll be white when it's processed.) Acres and acres of pretty pink salt.

There are two ways to get from NZ's South to North islands. You either take a passenger ferry or go by propeller plane. The flight is less than half an hour but it's worth it for the views down on Queen Charlotte Sound and Wellington's coastline. Just hope for a clear day so you get a smooth ride and the best unobstructed views.
