The Marlborough Region is a unitary authority, both a region and a district. It forms a 12,494 square kilometres triangular area at the north-east section of the South Island, ranging from about 10 kilometres east of Nelson, to near Wharanui on the east coast, south to the Molesworth Station area.

The Alpine Fault splits in the north of the South Island, into several subsidiary faults. In the Marlborough Region the Wairau Fault is marked by the Wairau Valley trending east north-east across the region, and opening into a wide alluvial plain around the Blenheim area. To the north of the fault is the Upper Palaeozoic greywackes and schist of the Richmond and Bryant ranges, and drowned valleys of the Marlborough Sounds. To the south are several splay faults from the Alpine Fault, including the Awatere, Clarence, Kekerenga, and Hope-Kaikoura Faults, with the Kaikoura Orogeny uplifting the Kaikoura Mountains consisting of greywacke.

Mining is not a major present day industry in the region. There are however a number of small historic goldfields in the northern part of the region, particularly the Richmond Range. These can be accessed often by steep walking trails.

The Marlborough Sounds along the north-east coast is a maze of drowned river valleys, with sounds, islands and peninsulas, bordered by steep forested hills. It is an underrated scenic attraction at least to the knowledge of many outside New Zealand. Walking on the 70 kilometre long Queen Charlotte Track, or getting on a boat is really the only way to see it.
