Today we are leaving Wellington and the North Island and heading to the South Island on the Cook Strait Ferry between Wellington and Picton! It’s time for the New Zealand ferry crossing!

We take an early morning sailing from Wellington with Interislander. We check into the Interislander Ferry, park up and start exploring the Interislander ferry for the New Zealand ferry crossing.

We choose one of the multiple viewing decks to watch Wellington turn into a tiny dot in the distance. Then we are on the Cook Strait – the body of water between the North Island and South Island.

After checking out The Bridge with Interislander – something you have to be invited to do (it’s not included in a ferry ticket) – we head back onto the viewing deck as we enter the stunning Marlborough Sounds as part of the ferry between Wellington and Picton.

This is the highlight of the Cook Strait Ferry between the North Island and South Island with some incredible views.

The North Island to South Island ferry arrives in Picton where we can officially say we have reached the South Island! We relax on the Picton Waterfront and enjoy the relaxed pace of life here in Picton.

So what do you think of the New Zealand ferry crossing? Would you take the ferry between Wellington and Picton?
