Try a spot of kayaking in the shallow sandy bays, jump off for a refreshing swim or walk over a headland and rejoin the boat at the next bay.
Abel Tasman Charters is a small, family-owned and operated company. As locals, we enjoy sharing our knowledge of the Abel Tasman National Park with you. It's been our backyard all our lives...
Abel Tasman Charters is owned and operated by Rod Stuart (yes! just don't ask him to sing), your other skippers are Emma and Tim. They are passionate about this special place in New Zealand, and you'll find their knowledgeable enthusiasm has captivated you by the end of your cruise.
Follow SH60 north of Motueka and through Riwaka then turn right towards Kaiteriteri. Take the first right turn towards Stephens Bay and park here. Your skipper will be waiting to transfer you to your boat.
