Picton

Located at the end of Queen Charlotte Sound, Picton is a beautiful picturesque town, which acts as the link between the north and south islands of New Zealand. Sailing into and out of Picton is simply stunning, so make sure you are up early to admire the Sounds in the early hours. Cruise ships dock at an industrial wharf, and passengers are bussed into the city centre, close to many attractions, shops and eateries.
