Me and my husband were lucky enough to be able to kayak with Marahau Kayaks as our original centre couldn’t take us.
Anton and the team were super friendly, helpful and all round good guys. We will surely be back for another adventure. Thanks team 👍🏽

Freedom kayak for $70pp.
Excellent safety brief and then set loose onto the waters of the Abel Tasman National Park. Really good service and equipment, fantastic to have total independence. Good price.

An amazing way to experience Abel Tasman National Park.
We took the option to get a taxi up to Barks Bay and kayak back. It was quite pricey but worth it rather than doing a day trip there and back in kayaks.

Morning aqua taxi north of Marahau, then a six hour guided kayak tour back to Marahau.
Beautiful scenery, good lunch and a little bit of history/knowledge. Marginally overpriced at $154 per person.

Friendly and funny staff, well organised, good kayaks! You can also book lunch and it is definitely worth it. We had beautiful views and we saw a lot of seals.

We spent an awesome day exploring the beautiful bays and lagoons of the Abel Tasman National Park by kayak.
Our guide, Tim, was super funny and knew at least 1000 jokes, even some german ones.

We wanted to rent kayaks ourselves to explore the coast along the Abel Tasman National Park and their freedom kayak option was perfect!
It allowed us to go everywhere we wanted to, not too expensive and great little tips.
