Driving from Picton to Christchurch is an amazing way to explore the North and East coast of the South Island.
The scenic drive offers a variety of experiences, from beautiful coastlines to vineyards and even marine life.
With stops like Black Sand Beach, wineries, and a lavender farm, we recommend giving yourself at least 6 hours to complete this road trip so you can enjoy each stop at your leisure.
