1. Golden Bay Kayaks
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 208 reviews
Golden Bay Kayaks is one of the best little kayak companies in New Zealand, situated in one of the best kayaking destinations in the world, which is why it is such a popular destination for all kayakers from beginners to the more experienced. The closest kayak company to the Abel Tasman and the ONLY company that lets you paddle the entire length of the park. They specialise in half day, full day and multi-day rentals. Amazing instruction on the simple, no fuss guided tours. The personal touch makes this a high value and extremely memorable experience. Perfect for those that have not kayaked before or very little or for those keen to learn about the Northern end of the Abel Tasman's rich history, geology and wildlife. Stand Up Paddle boards also available for hire. The most amazing way to experience the easily accessible Tata Islands, which are a fantastic destination to explore nature so close.
2. Hack'n Stay Golden Bay
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 85 reviews
"Just the right place for people with a little more experience with horses and riding" Beach trails, off road trails, vaulting lessons with well trained horses. From 1 hours to overnighters all over Golden Bay. Farm stay for horses and rider. Hack'n Stay is dedicated to those who want to enjoy the simple things in life. Enjoy time with one of our horses or bring your own hack. Take a sulky ride along the beach. Ride bare back along the golden sands. Swim with the horses on many crystal clear waters or try vaulting. Hacktivities off the beaten track.

we met some people on a previous walk and they told us about the cave so we had to do it .It started off easy enough then got very steep fortunately we met several people who were on their way down and all said it was well worth the effort which helped drive us on and we were so pleased we did it was sensational and the temperature drop in the cave was amazing

Beautiful bush walk for the whole family. Two hour return, hill walk up the valley. Make sure you take water and sunblock as one half of the walk is directly in the sun, depending on the time of year. I would recommend walking the water race side there and back if you prefer the greenery of the NZ bush.
