זה היה יום גשום, אז החלטנו לעשות 1/2 יום שיט לים וזה היה נפלא. המדריך שלנו היה כל כך נחמד ומקובל. הם מצאו מגרש עצום של דולפינים שאנחנו תלויים איתם במשך שעה. זה היה מאוד זול, בהחלט ממליץ.

אנחנו אוהבים את השירות מאוד! צוות זהיר שהעניק מידע על המקום ואת החיות.

שירות נהדר. היינו צריכים לשנות את התוכניות שלנו ברגע האחרון לעשות את זה קצר יותר בגלל חום התינוק והם היו מאוד מועילים.

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.

זה היה מאוד נחמד לראות כי אפילו ביום אחד, זה היה אפשרי באמת ליהנות הפארק הזה. הג'נטלמן על השולחן היה ידידותי והעניק המלצות נהדרות. המחיר שווה את זה. עזבנו בסירות מהחוף וראינו כמה חופים ואריות ים. ואז הסירה ירדה אותנו בתחילת הליכה 10 ק"מ (3 שעות הליכה ללא הפסקה עבורנו).הליכה הייתה קסומה באמצע היער והחופים.

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!
