Easygo Campers
You get what you pay for, a cheaper van but a bit past its best.
Everything works - keep fingers crossed when starting the engine.

Gets a high mark in spite of barely adequate shower and toilet facilities.
Because of it's stunning location - new toilet block planned.

Although we did not get the full effect of a high tide, this was a stunning example of the wonders of nature and the work of the sea.

Greymouth Seaside TOP 10 Holiday Park
Compact (small) site blighted by close proximity to main road and constant traffic noise.

Waiatoto River Safaris
Had a couple of 'interesting' incidents.
In spite of this would recommend this as a much better alternative to Shotover etc. Knowledgeble driver learnt much about fauna and flora plus exhilirating ride home.

Abel Tasman Sea Shuttle
Great staff - enjoyable boat ride in testing conditions.
Saw seals and a great variety of birdlife. Walk (2.5hrs) just long enough to enjoy some down time on the beach.
