Highlights

  • Explore the 12 pristine beaches of the Astrolabe area at your own pace

Take in the spectacular views along the coast of the Astrolabe area in Abel Tasman, with 12 pristine beaches and an Island sanctuary to explore this will be a day of creating lifelong memories.

Setting out from Marahau you will guide yourselves along the forest-fringed coastline stopping where you want for photos or to simply relax and enjoy a picnic. Visit Adele Island sanctuary where an abundance of native birds fill the air with birdsong and New Zealand Fur seals like to hang out. Drift in and out of caves on high tide or stop off to a hike up Watering Cove for incredible views over Abel Tasman National Park.

Paddle back to Marahau at your leisure stopping in at your favourite places or exploring areas you missed on the way past. For competent outdoors people, there is the option to kayak all the way from Marahau to Anchorage and get a water taxi back.

Amazing experience for a first time freedom Kayak

This was my first time going out on a kayak without a guide with me so was initially very nervous. However, the staff were amazing and put me at ease. We were given a detailed safety brief and time to ask any questions. We were given a map and full details on timings and the best places to go. We were also given contact numbers if needed. We were dropped off and picked up and specified points. I felt extremely safe out on the ocean. We went around Adele island where we saw seals and got surrounded by dolphins which was a surreal experience!
