Water taxi was common transport in Marlborough Sounds

I was taking the 1:30pm water taxi. There was only three guests including me

This big ship was from North Island

Water activities were usual in the sounds

Resorts were built along the sounds

The skipper shared that the Marlboroubgh Sounds has 1/5 coastal lines in NZ

It took more than 1 hour to the start point of QC track, Ship Cove at 2:45pm

Mussels were everywhere along this coast
