Kayaking in Abel Tasman

We had a fantastic 3 days in Abel Tasman National Park, probably the most visited park in New Zealand but we still managed to find some remote areas. We did a 2 day Kayak/ 1 day hike combo trip. We kayaked along the coast, saw some fur seals and camped at sea-access only campsites on the beach, and hiked back on the coastal track through beech and fern forest. Had fanstastic weather as well and Charlie would tell you that it's his favourite outing so far because he caught a nice fish on the kayak!! I think it's called a kawa, a local fish here. We cooked it up at the campsite last night, it was pretty yummy!

We are really getting into the outdoors now and are going to head out for another 3 day trek tomorrow! Possibly to one of the Lord of The Rings sites!
