We took a kayak tour the next day around the coast of the Abel Tasmen park. There was our guide and 5 other people on the tour with with us, two guys from Germany and a family of three from Amsterdam. It was beautiful to see the sandy beaches and coast line from the water. We got to learn about local vegetation and wildlife from our guide as well as see seals from only a couple meters away. After stopping for lunch at Watering Cove we took a water taxi up the coast to Barks Bay from there we took a 3 hour hike back to Torrent Bay before catching another water taxi back to Marahau.
