The wine region starts around the town of Blenheim. The are is also filled with arts and crafts boutiques that you can see, or take a trip to one of the local museums where you can learn about Maori culture and history within the sounds.

Hostels in Marlborough Sounds can be scattered anywhere from Picton up through into the wilderness of the Queen Charlotte Sound. When choosing your Marlborough Sounds hostel, it is a good idea to double check its location as the access to amenities will be dependent upon where your hostel is and how remote of an area it is. If you need a constant supply of amenities and food it is a good idea to stay closer to Picton, as this is the major town nearby in which to obtain supplies. You will also need a car to get around these regions as public transport to and from places within New Zealand can be difficult.
