About the Series:
Living a Kiwi Life is about a Canadian couple (me and Jenna) who have lived in Canada all our lives and made the decision to move to New Zealand having never gone there before. We quit our jobs, sold our houses and cars and left everything we knew to explore an unknown.

WALKING THE ABEL TASMAN COAST TRACK // NEW ZEALAND
We walked part of the Abel Tasman Coast Track at the Abel Tasman National Park! We took an Aqua Taxi from Marahau to Anchorage Bay, and then walked back to Marahau.

Hiking Abel Tasman Coast Track, New Zealand
The Abel Tasman National Park is known for its fantastic beaches, mild weather and lush coastal native bush. We hiked the track from Marahau to Wainui Bay (South to North), taking mostly the “high-tide” tracks with only one tidal crossing at Awaroa Inlet.
The Abel Tasman coast track took us 5 days and was mostly easy walking of about 3-4 hours per day. The 4th day was the most physically challenging because we took lots of detours to explore all the nice golden beaches and views of the fur seal colony from Separation Point. Sophie tells me we clocked over 20km on that day.
I created this film to document these memories of Sophie’s first New Zealand Great Walk.
If you liked this video, our full South Island trip vlog is coming soon!….. Once I’ve had a chance to edit the 250+ hrs of raw footage from the camera!! Subscribe to be the first to know.

-- About this video --
Today we are joining Wilsons Abel Tasman for a day full of activities in the Abel Tasman National Park! We’re first taking a Wilsons Abel Tasman Water Taxi to Split Apple Rock then Torrent Bay where we are then going to kayak in Abel Tasman. After we reach another beach, we then have the choice to return to Torrent Bay by Kayak or to walk back via the Abel Tasman Coastal Track which is the Abel Tasman Great Walk of New Zealand.
It’s a stunning Abel Tasman Water Taxi ride to Split Apple Rock and other bays in the Abel Tasman National Park. We are dropping off hikers on other bays until it is our turn to jump off the boat with our tour group at Torrent Bay where our Abel Tasman kayak adventure begins.
We have an awesome group of backpackers in our tour led by a guide who gives us a lesson in double kayaking in the Abel Tasman National Park. Then we are ready to hit the water and discover Abel Tasman’s islands, bays and coves. There’s wildlife in the Abel Tasman National Park to see too.
After about an hour we arrive on Medlands Beach for some lunch and our halfway point. We now get to choose whether we kayak back to Torrent Bay or hike in Abel Tasman. We opt for the hike which is the Abel Tasman Coastal Track. The Abel Tasman Coast Track is one of New Zealand’s Great Walks.
The Abel Tasman Coastal Track takes us over swing bridges and through regenerating native forest with views of secluded beaches along the way. We are stoked to be able to do a Great Walk during our 365 Days: 365 Activities.
Once we return, we meet up with the rest of our Wilsons Abel Tasman tour group and catch the Abel Tasman water taxi back to Kaiteriteri!
So what do you think of the Great Walk & Kayak in Abel Tasman National Park? Would you kayak in Abel Tasman or do the Abel Tasman Great Walk? Let us know in the comments!

Able Tasman Coastal Track New Zealand
One of the 9 New Zealand 'Great Walks' the Able Tasman coastal track is a 3 - 5 day hike along the beautiful coastline of the Able Tasman National Park. The track in total is 60km, we caught a water taxi as far north as possible to Totaranui and hiked back down the coast to Marahau. This took 15.5km off the length of the hike but we came back at a later date to complete the top part of the track by doing a 2 day loop hike. Starting at Wainui bay along the coast to Totaranui then inland over Gibbs Hill and back to Wainui carpark.This was perhaps a 30km hike? Which will be in another video. Although I didn't manage to get any swimming footage we took many swim breaks at beautiful secluded coves and napped in the shade on the sandy beaches. We camped in our tent 2 nights, preferring the privacy, peace and quiet over sleeping with strangers snoring and farting all night long in a hut.The weather was perfect, a great time was had and life long memories were made. Enjoy!

Walking Abel Tasman Coast Track
Walking the Abel Tasman Coast Track is something you have to do when in New Zealand. The golden beaches, granite rocks and native green bush will make you feel like you're on a tropical island. It's a great walk and you can choose to walk a part of it or the entire 60kilometers.

Abel Tasman Coastal Track - Backpacking New Zealand
A 3-day trek along the shores of Abel Tasman National Park, New Zealand. Starting from the trailhead at Marahau we hiked north. We stopped at Apple Tree Bay then Anchorage Bay for swimming along the route. The first night we camped at Te Pukatea. It was a quiet cove (only about 8 people camping here compared to Anchorage with easily 40+). For the second day we headed back to the main track then up a side trail to Cleopatra's Pool. The river is cold but worth a rock slide dip in. :-) We trekked further on this second day to Bark Bay. This was (my) favorite camp! The white sand was soft and there were stingrays grazing along the shore. We arrived in the early afternoon and had our own section of beach completely to ourselves until sunset. Multiple parties arrived later, making this a pretty popular camp spot, however it was still an enjoyable experience. On the third day we hiked further north, crossing many swing bridges and the beautiful long stretch of beach Onetahuti. We finished our excursion at Awaroa Bay. The Lodge opened just in time for us to enjoy some fresh coffee and draft beers. After a good swim here, our water taxi arrived. There are many water taxi companies to chose from that will take you back to Marahau. We chose AquaTaxi and loved it!
This was one of the BEST multi-night backpacking trips we've ever experienced!
