Bay Of Many Coves Resort Offers Piscatorial Pleasure on a Plate

The Bay Of Many Coves Resort in the Marlborough Sounds is offering four days of piscatorial pleasure.

The 5-star resort is playing a pre-eminent role in the Marlborough Sounds Seafood Celebration over ANZAC Weekend (April 25-28) by offering a long weekend of pure luxury, combined with discovery, top entertainment, fishing and a culinary experience people will never forget.

Recognised both nationally and internationally for the quality of its seafood, the Marlborough Sounds is the ideal place to enjoy its bountiful harvest at its freshest best.

Weekend guests will visit the NZ King Salmon farms and the local paua, oyster and mussel farms on board the beautiful Lady Karen and spend a morning fishing in the Sounds on the MV Tory under expert guidance. Guests will even be taught how to prepare salmon dishes by the NZ King Salmon expert!

Executive Chef, Hannes Bareiter, will prepare an eight-course degustation dinner featuring fresh Marlborough Sounds seafood matched with delicious Giesen Wines.

Woven into the celebration is commemoration. The resort acknowledges ANZAC Day and the 98th commemoration of Gallipoli and, included in the festivities, is time for personal reflection and the opportunity to listen to music from the war years from dynamic duo, Flashback.

On April 25, 1915, New Zealand and Australian troops came ashore on beaches on the other side of the world. At a time when New Zealanders remember the sacrifices made and how Gallipoli cemented our national identity, co-owner, Murray McCaw, will provide for guests to place a poppy on the pristine waters of Marlborough Sounds.

“The weekend at our luxury Bay of Many Coves Resort will be a unique celebration and commemoration. Our breathtaking natural environment will provide the chance to relax, enjoy, reflect and taste New Zealand bounty at its best,” Murray McCaw says.

The Seafood Celebrations is the first of a series of 2013 luxury weekends meticulously planned by the Bay Of Many Coves Resort. They include the popular photographic retreat, Opera Lovers Weekend, the Taittinger Winter Jazz Retreat and Villa Maria Music and Wine with zany Wellington jazz ensemble Hot Club Sandwich.

Space is strictly limited. For bookings and more information go to www.bayofmanycoves.co.nz and search under “Events”.
