Byl to dešťový den, takže jsme se rozhodli udělat 1/2 denní námořní přepravu a bylo to fantastické. Naši průvodci byli tak milí a příjemní. Našli obrovský pod delfínů, které jsme viseli kolem asi hodinu. Bylo to opravdu cenově dostupné taky, rozhodně doporučuji.

Služba se nám velmi líbila! Pozorný personál, který poskytl informace o místě a zvířatech. Viděli jsme pečetě a modré tučňáky!

Skvělý servis. Museli jsme změnit naše plány na poslední chvíli a udělat to kratší kvůli dětské horečce a byli velmi užiteční. Na denní prohlídce objevů jsme mohli vidět delfíny, pečetě... Tak šťastní s tím!

We did the five beaches walk taking the boat directly to awaroa in the morning. It took us a little over 2 hours to complete the track. We walked fast but no running and took pictures on the way. The hike was marked as "demanding" but it only was a small portion of the track that was quite steep. Even that was an Ok gravel road. The park itself is spectacular. Really recommend visiting.

Today we did the Kayak, Seals & Cruise tour. I quickly booked it yesterday at the counter, which was open until 6pm. Good for us due to the long route from Wellington by ferry and then also to Kaiteriteri. The tour is recommendable, also for kayak-newbies like us. They explain everything, the kayaks (for two) are steady in the water and we felt safe, too. There is an extra storage compartment for backpacks in the kayak. They give you special drybags for your dry things. The equipment is in good condition. Recommended clothing: Below bathing clothes, after an hour of paddling it's possible to find a little puddle in your seat. For the upper body something that can get wet and dries fast. Some sort of functional wear, synthetic. Maybe some change for after the kayaking. Kayaking takes up the entire morning, after midday a ferry with guide drives past the seals and explains the park attractions and story, e.g. Split Apple Rock. After that they give you 2 hours of time at the beach of Anchorage where you can wander around or simply enjoy the beach. Both is great! After that the ferry brings you back and around 5pm you're back. Very good tour. Would do it again. There are also other offers. Best plan it ahead three, four days before, do what you like best considering the weather.

Bylo velmi hezké vidět, že i za jeden den bylo možné si tento park opravdu vychutnat. Pán u stolu byl přátelský a dal skvělá doporučení. Cena stojí za to. Odešli jsme v lodích z pláže a spatřili několik pláží a mořských lvů. Pak nás loď spustila na začátku procházky 10km (3 hodiny chůze nonstop pro nás).Chůze byla magická uprostřed lesa a pláží.

A really great way to see Abel Tasman and some of the little bays along the park. A professional outfit that goes out of their way to make sure you get the experience you are desiring. Excellent commentary during the boat trips as well. And the onboard food was pretty good too!
