Only a 40-minute drive from Nelson, buzzing with its creative arts scene, is the beautiful Abel Tasman National Park. At the very top of the South Island, the park has endless golden sandy coves, impressive rock formations and incredible sea-life.

Description
The 51km Coastal Track is what most people come here for, and usually takes between 3 -5 days to walk from one end to the other. Or, as the park is so accessible by boat, you can walk a portion of the trail and cruise along the remainder – or cruise all the way relaxing and admiring the magnificent scenery from the deck. If you are keen to put more effort in though, why not explore the coves in a kayak for a day?
Whichever way you choose; the crystal clear waters will be a constant temptation beckoning you in. Take time to enjoy swimming, spotting the sea life and soaking up the sunshine – the dolphins, penguins and fur seals can be your entertainment as you sunbathe!
Accommodation en route can be arranged in lodges or campsites and water taxis and shuttles are also available along the way.

My wife and I are independant travellers who did not want to be part of a larger tour group although we needed some help with the itinerary - flights, hotels, transfers etc. This is where eShores came in to the picture. I found the entire booking process to be a very positive experience primarily because we were assigned a dediacted travel advisor who remained with us as the sole point of contact throughout the entire process. Kelly was friendly, knowledgeable and responded back to any query promptly. We discussed some initial ideas over the phone and then she e-mailed me various options and we finally selected a trip to Cambodia and South Vietnam. Overall a brilliant service from Kelly and the eShores team (ps We are yet to take the trip but will report back on how the itinerary works out in practical terms when we head out in 2026)
