Interislander Cook Strait Ferries
Discover the Interislander Cook Strait ferry, sailing between Wellington and Picton every day. Cruise between the North and South Islands on one of the world's most scenic ferry journeys, taking in dramatic coastlines, sparkling waterways, and the breathtaking Marlborough Sounds.
Cruise through the spectacular Marlborough Sounds, cross the wild beauty of Te-Moana-Raukawa Cook Strait, and arrive in Picton after a scenic three-and-a-half-hour journey. On board, you'll find cafés, lounges, a cinema, children's play areas, and plenty of space to relax and soak up the views.
We recommend booking well ahead, especially during summer, Easter, and school holidays. Choose a flexible fare if you can, because there's a good chance you'll want to extend your stay in our region once you discover everything Nelson Tasman has to offer.
