We are only fifteen minutes from Blenheim – the nearest major town, and approximately 30 minutes from Picton – the gateway to the beautiful Marlborough Sounds or 30 minutes from Havelock – the Green Lipped Mussel Capital of the World.
There are numerous options for you to enjoy a day in the Sounds, either departing from Picton or Havelock. Join the postie on their mail run into the outer reaches of the Sounds, or visit and sample at a mussel or salmon farm.
It seldom rains in this little spot of paradise, but a great wet day activity is a visit to the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre – home to Sir Peter Jacksons WW1 Knights of the Sky and WW2 Dangerous Skies exhibitions.
