Picton

Picton is an unincorporated community located in southeaster Ontario. Port Marlborough (Picton Cruise Port) is wedged between the mountains and the sea of Queen Charlotte Sound, one of four rugged sounds that make up the Marlborough Sounds. It is one of the busiest ports in New Zealand with over 7,500 large vessel movements annually.  Large cruise liners and inter island ferries crossing the Cook Strait all stoop here.

A significant component of Port Marlborough’s business is the provision of facilities for tourism and leisure industry operators. Picton hosts a number of cruise ship visits each summer and both Picton and Havelock provide bases for a growing number of tourism and adventure-tourism operators.  Smaller facilities in Picton, Havelock, Elaine Bay and Oyster Bay service fishing fleets, marine farmers and barge operators as well as providing transport routes for the communities of the Marlborough Sounds.
