This is a short and scenic journey which takes you along Queen Charlotte Drive to Havelock and then on to the Pelorus River. (an option is to return via Blenheim, which takes about the same time).

 

Its takes approximately 1 hour to Havelock

 

 

Try The Mussel Pot in the main street

 

or Slip Inn Cafe down by the marina

 

Heidi’s Cafe in the main street is my favourite for something simple.
