It's not
known as New Zealand's sunniest province for nothing! Marlborough's clear, sunny skies and
diverse landscape encourages a relaxed lifestyle. Marlborough has a wide and varied range
of recreational activities from which to choose: tramping in the region's native
forests; fishing trout-filled rivers; discovering the Sounds' sheltered bays; seeking
out the humpback whale; exploring Marlborough's high backcountry. And all easily
within reach of the region's towns.
Whether your interest lies with sea-kayaking or sea cruising, wine or
wildlife, Marlborough is a great place to chill-out!

The Brothers is a group of tiny islands in Cook Strait, off the west coast of Arapawa Island. The island group is a sanctuary for a rare reptile species, the Brothers Island tuatara. Found only on The Brothers Islands, it differs from the common tuatara in having olive skin with yellowish patches. Although resembling lizards, tuatara are related equally distantly to lizards and snakes, which are their closest living relatives.
