MARLBOROUGH & NELSON
Welcome to Marlborough & Nelson
T
his stunningly beautiful part of New Zealand has much to offer. From the picturesque and vibrant whale watch capital Kaikōura in the south, to the sweeping sands of Golden Bay and the emerald jewel that is Kahurangi National Park in the north, this is definitely a journey not to be rushed. Marlborough Sounds’ shimmering coves are picture perfect and there are plenty of opportunities to get into nature there. For gastronomers, this region has many gems: green-shell mussels in Havelock, fresh fish in Nelson and the vineyards of Blenheim and Nelson have many internationally sought-after labels. Craft, culture and history lovers won’t be disappointed spending time here, either.
