Abel Tasman National Park, opened in 1942, is potentially the most famous national park in New Zealand, and with good reason. It won a reputation because of its golden beaches, its many rocky outcrops and their unmodified estuaries.

It has a mild climate, making it a popular tourist destination throughout the year, and with plenty of sunshine hours in the summer the beach is very popular. The landscape becomes less scarse Sometimes, because of the tendency of the early settlers, the hill fire to create pasture, but when it was given to forest regeneration.

Wild animals, you can expect to see there are massage, bellbirds, pukekhoes, Weka, dolphins, seals, and even some penguins.

There are many attractions and activities in and around the Abel Tasman. Which is best known for sea kayaking and plenty of managers willing to show you around you really are spoiled for choice.

Other fantastic ways to see the park are on a sail boat, charter boat, above in a helicopter or airplane or you can go right into the park on a guided walk and explore either the Inland Track or the Coastal Track, which is one of New Zealand's Great Walks.
