Wharariki Beach Walk
Simply stunning.
From the carpark, 20 minutes walk amongst sheep to the beach. Get there at low tide. Beach is a true piece of paradise. Seals small and big are playing on the rocks in front of your path in and out of the beach. Really is a must do. Good hour walk on the beach.

Bravo for the quality of service!

Abel Tasman Coast Track
Easy paths to follow.
You will not get lost. Big sections are in the shade, in the bush which is great under the crazy sun. Whatever you do, make sure you get to the beach of your choice at low tide. Our favourite beach? Torrent Bay.

Abel Tasman Marahau Water Taxis
Fun and efficient.
They double as tourist guides and allow you to walk any small or big portion of the Abel Tasman area. Taxis are on time. They make sure you know where you are going when they drop you off. Safe also.

Marahau Sea Kayaks / MSK
Great introduction for beginners who want to freedom kayak.
Equipment is in great shape. Helpful in determining routes to take and small beaches attainable by kayak only.
