Dry feet, happy feet!
A locally owned water taxi company with purpose built, catamarans that have walk on/off ramp access to keep those hiking feet dry, where possible.
Departs up to 4 times daily from Kaiteriteri Beach and a daily coach transfer from Nelson/Motueka to Kaiteriteri.
The experienced skippers, informative and fun commentary, along with our comfortable vessels and many walk/cruise options, will be the highlight of your visit to the Abel Tasman National Park. All our vessels have ramps for easy entry and exit to the cabin area and toilets onboard for your comfort.

5.0/5
Took the shuttle in partnership with Kaiteriteri Kayaks to spend a day on the water.
The water taxi was kind enough to detour on the way back in order for us to see Split Apple Rock.

Laid back style, but efficient.
Friendly and knowledgeable staff/crew. Loved the informality of only needing my first name!! Smashing guided tour from Kaiteriteri to Awaroa for the ambient experience. Well worth the money.

Great service, easy to contact and find, very informative upon arrival.
Was dropped off at Bark Bay by friendly boat driver, even brought us out of the way to show us Split Apple Rock, really sweet!

Ein toller Ausflug trotzdem es zeitweise geregnet hat - wir haben viele Robben und auch Delphine gesehen.
Die Crew hat sich wunderbar gekümmert.

Great sightseeing on the boat in the National Park; then a really nice walk of about three hours, then picked up 15 further, all very well organised, with pickup in the morning from the i-Site.

Our online booking went wrong, but we got our tickets anyway.
A nice trip - but we would like more information from both the ticket office and the captain.

Beautiful trip along the National Park.
Good commentary from the captain. Although we were late he went slow so that the dolphins could join us and swim near the boat.

Provided more than just transfers with showing us seals and Split Apple Rock.
Seemed expensive at $65 to $70, but great staff, with great knowledge.

Good punctual service.
Stops at all major bays. Gives some nice explanation along the way and some great jokes. Would definitely recommend this water shuttle.

Takes you to inaccessible beaches, where you can have a walk.
They do a nice guided tour along some seal colonies on the way there.

We paid for the 'Discovery Day'.
It started at 9.45am - boat tour to Totaranui with lots of explanation! Step off at Torrent Bay, walk 6-7km and then the boat back to Kaiteriteri! SUPER DAY!

Although it seemed pricey, the trip we did was good value for money, with a knowledgeable, friendly pickup driver who stopped on the way to the boat to tell us about the Motueka area and good informative
commentary on the boat. Well-organised and comfortable boats.

Very nice way to see Abel Tasman when you don't have time to walk the tracks.
We saw a lot of scenery and wildlife on our three hour ride. Plenty of time given for photo opportunities.

Discoverer Day; Disappointed with initial boat, no external seating, no hot drinks (can on survuve 9.15 to 11.30 am and no coffee!!!) Seating too low and exposed to spray.
The walk Medlands - Anchorage was excellent. Return boat 45 minutes, more comfortable and had COFFEE!!
