Marlborough Sounds Gourmet Seafood Cruise

 Sailing on the wonderfully named MV Odyssea – a luxury 20-metre catamaran – this is your chance to sample the region’s fresher-than-fresh seafood in a unique setting. Departing from Picton, you’ll cruise the Marlborough Sounds to call at salmon farms, learn about the aquaculture with informative talks and admire the picture-perfect scenery of still waters framed by green undulations. It’s all pivoted around appreciating the Marlborough seafood with Regal salmon, Cloudy Bay clams and Greenshell mussels among the highlights – the ingredients that grace the tables of the country’s finest restaurants. This being New Zealand, it’s all expertly matched with a local sauvignon blanc.
