Foi um dia chuvoso, então decidimos fazer um ônibus marítimo de 1/2 dia e foi fantástico. Nossos guias eram tão bonitos e acolhedores. Eles encontraram um enorme pod de golfinhos que penduramos por cerca de uma hora. Foi realmente acessível também, definitivamente recomendo.

Nós gostamos muito do serviço!Pessoal atento que deu informações sobre o lugar e os animais.Podíamos ver selos e pinguins azuis!

Serviço ótimo. Tivemos que mudar nossos planos no último minuto e torná-lo mais curto por causa da febre do bebê e eles foram muito úteis. Na excursão do dia de descoberta pudemos ver golfinhos, selos... tão feliz com isso!

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.

Foi muito bom ver que mesmo em um dia, foi possível realmente desfrutar deste parque. O cavalheiro na mesa foi amigável e deu grandes recomendações. O preço vale a pena. Partimos em barcos da praia e vimos várias praias e leões do mar. Então o barco nos deixou no início de uma caminhada de 10km (3 horas caminhando sem parar para nós).O passeio foi mágico no meio da floresta e praias. Então o barco veio nos pegar.

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!
