    FAQ

Can I buy food and drink in the Abel Tasman National Park?

If your trip requires you to bring your own food we recommend purchasing this before you get to Mārahau. We do sell a few small snack items and drinks. There is a small store in Mārahau but the nearest supermarket is in Motueka.  Check your confirmation or trip description to see the food requirements for the tour you have selected. Food suggestions can also be found here.

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?

Astrolabe Roadstead doesn't show up on the standard tourist map — mostly because you can't drive to it.

Twelve beaches and a  couple of islands, only reachable by water. It's one of the  one of our favourites to paddle.

Ever paddled somewhere you couldn't have walked to?

We look forward to welcoming our first summer guests on the water again this week, and it's worth saying: every guest contributes directly to the National Park.

That water ... 💙 The Abel Tasman is famous for its crystal-clear, turquoise seas – the perfect backdrop for kayaking.
