The Marlborough region encompasses Picton, the gateway to the South Island; the beautiful bays and inlets of the Marlborough Sounds; and the wineries of the Blenheim, New Zealand's sunshine capital. To make the most of the region's sunshine, cruise the bays of Pelorus Sound or take in coastal views from the Queen Charlotte Track. Marlborough weather is warm, dry and settled, making this one of the country's top wine producing regions. Sheltered by high country to the west and south, the area is also New Zealand's sunniest.
