Marlborough Coastal Areas
Share this
Marlborough District only represents around 3.9 percent of New Zealand's total land area, however due to the extensive coastline and islands of the Marlborough Sounds, Marlborough has significantly over ten percent of New Zealand's coastline. Coastal areas vary widely from sheltered bush clad hillsides down to the water's edge in the Marlborough Sounds, to exposed, wind swept sandy beaches on the Pacific coast in the south east.
