Picton Marina
Picton Marina sits at the heart of the Marlborough Sounds and can handle vessels up to 50m in length, making it one of the few marinas in the South Island equipped for superyachts. You'll find showers, toilets, laundry, and water on the wharves, plus rubbish disposal points — everything sorted so you can focus on exploring the surrounding sounds. It's a genuinely well-set-up base, with Picton's cafes, ferry terminal, and the Queen Charlotte Track all within easy reach.
