About Clova Bay

 

Clova Bay is in the ‘deep’ Pelorus and is suitable for fishing, swimming, diving, tramping, shellfish, water skiing, mountain biking, hunting, sailing, or just as a base from which to explore the Marlborough Sounds by boat or car.

 

How to Get Here

 

Access is by road (approximately 2 hours drive from Linkwater), or sea (approximately 1 hour ride from Havelock Marina) or air (fly with Sounds Air to an adjacent airstrip for approximately $50 per person from Koromiko Airport, which is between Blenheim and Picton). Another option is to water taxi from Picton to Torea Bay (which is about a 10 minute boat ride). It’s about a 50 minute ride by road from there – and we can organise this for you if required.

 

Give us a call or drop an email to us if you want more information or options on getting here.
