What our customers say

What an amazing day we had! Our walk in the morning was lovely, and then we had the most delicious lunch provided to us (we will be dreaming of that sandwich forever). Our kayaking guides Jess and Henry were phenomenal, super knowledgeable, personable and great teachers for the newbie kayakers. Would recommend to anyone looking for an amazing day trip


Ryley Erickson

We checked in with Zac the day before the trip - he was super helful and friendly on the day we had Sam as a guide and he was very friendly and also knowledgeable.


Jane

Staff were very accommodating with transferring of our packs between bays as we walked the Abel Tasman. Last minute changes were not a problem for them at all. They were kind and helpful in each communication. Would highly recommend their services to anyone. Thanks!

At high tide they rise like little islands; at low tide they reveal hidden channels and textures that make this coastline endlessly interesting.
