Marlborough Sounds

After arriving in Picton we headed north along the scenic Queen Charlotte Drive and up into the Sounds. The drive was absolutely stunning as we winded our way through the headlands. The coastline, beaches, and bays displayed some beautiful colours as the weather was perfect.

We arrived at Nikau Cove late afternoon and pitched our tent at the tiny DOC campsite. We had a lovely lazy afternoon enjoying the peace and beauty of the place. The next morning we took a quick walk down to Mistletoe Bay before heading on to Nelson and then the Abel Tasman National Park.
