The “Green-lipped Mussel Capital of the World” in the heart of the Marlborough Sounds makes the most of nature’s gifts.

The stunning Pelorus and Kaituna rivers flow into the even more stunning Pelorus and Kenepuru sounds, right where Havelock sits right by the water’s edge. It’s a great place to tune into nature by hiking, cycling, sailing or kayaking around the sounds. After exploring the Marlborough Sounds, visit the shops, art galleries and cafés in Havelock’s colonial town centre. Did we mention the mussels? Don’t forget to try those mussels!

"Great place to stay, right in the middle of the main street ! We have stayed here several times now and the Hosts are amazing, so friendly and helpful with local knowledge. Rooms are older but spotlessly clean, and wonderfully quiet at night 👍"

"For what this is (a cabin in a campervan park), it was excellent. The cabin was private, clean, and quiet. There's obviously no view and the amenities are all shared (shared bathroom/toilets/showers, shared communal area) but everything was in pretty good/decent shape. It's not a 5 star luxury hotel ..."
