“It felt like paddling with locals who genuinely cared — friendly, helpful, and full of stories about the coast.”
★★★★★
Don’t leave Golden Bay without seeing its hidden side.
Most visitors only glimpse the Abel Tasman from busy beaches. Without a kayak and a local guide, you’ll miss the quiet coves, curious seals, and the calm waters that make this coast unforgettable.
