See the beauty by kayak 

The Nelson Tasman region has beautiful scenery, golden beaches and an abundance of wildlife. Why not take a Kayak tour through the sheltered waters of the Abel Tasman National Park and discover this for yourself. Seals, birds and perhaps a pod of dolphins all await you on your Kayaking trip.

Guided Kayak tours are available from most companies and you set the pace, however there is always the option to "Freedom Rent", which allows you to explore unguided, an option best suited to the more experienced Kayaker. More Information Here
