Waterworld Wonderland
at Marlborough Sounds
Sunday February 18, 2007
It's an aquatic wonderland at Marlborough Sounds on New Zealand's South Island. A quick ferry trip across Cook Strait from Wellington, and you're there. The sounds are as much a fisherman’s haven as the active outdoor person’s playground. Go fishing, or swim with the dolphins. Dive or snorkel, or chat up a seal.
For those interested in tramping, which is the New Zealand term for hiking or walking, the Queen Charlotte Track should certainly pose a challenge. You can do the whole 58-kilometre track from Ship Cove to Anakiwa in three to four days or you can simply do sections using boats to drop you off at starting points and pick you up at the end of the sections chosen.
