There are a few lagoons where the the water goes still and shallow and turquoise. Got a favourite lagoon in the park?

There`s a rhythm to it after the first few strokes - paddle dips, blade catches, kayak glides.

That`s the point a trip stops feeling like a technique and starts feeling like just moving through the water.

Day one of a park start trip looks simpler than people expect.

A briefing at Marahau, a water taxi into the park, kayaking for the rest of the day, then pitching your tent at the end of the day.

Curious what day one actually looks like? It`s in the video.

Kaka, Tūi and bellbird, flitting through the bush before the rest of the park wakes up.

First light on the Coast Track sounds like this - no traffic, no chatter, just birdsong doing most of the talking. Worth being up for.

Early starts have their reasons.

There`s a particular kind of quiet that settles in once the tent`s up and the kettle`s on.

What`s your version of switching off?
