Walking
Lot's happening here in summer. If you like company then this is where you'll find most likely it. Lot's of facilities here at this popular campsite.

Kayaking
Anchorage is generally the busiest kayak pick up point within the Abel Tasman Park. So access and the facilities are very good with a shelter for cooking, fire pits and lush, flush toilets!
