Water taxi and kayaking

We had an amazing time. Kids need to be min 12 yrs old to go kayaking so we had to split up. All took water taxi to Torrent Bay some of us kayaked some of us walked, met up on the boat. Crew on board were very friendly and informative, flexible. Thank you we had a great experience.

Lovely day out on the water!

Lovely day out on the water! Great option if you want to experience Abel Tasman in a chilled way! I was expecting flatter water - but you don’t get it out in the sea, so the picture is quite misleading😅 Our Guide Paddy did a great job - took good care and demonstrated great leadership - made everyone feel comfortable and safe at all times! The best part is “sailing” but is weather dependant. And didn’t get to see too many seals close up but that is okay.

Excellent trip

Great trip with very informative guides. Saw some seals and were able to sail back to the collection point using a manually held sail! Really enjoyed the experience and would recommend.
