We had an absolutely idyllic day in the Abel Tasman. Sailing along the coastline is a totally relaxing experience with the breeze in your hair and just the sound of the water lapping against the hull. We had time on shore so we could go for several swims and have a wander through the bush. The pace was relaxed, giving us the flexibility to explore the coastline and make the most of the changing tides. The scenery is just magic - photos don't do justice to the incredible colours and the clearest water you can imagine. Martin is a great skipper, giving interesting info about the history and geography of the area, but also just allowing us to absorb it all quietly too. The whole day was a fantastic way to catch up with friends in the most beautiful surroundings - active and ourdoorsey but super relaxing too. I loved the serenity of this journey, powered mostly by the wind and knowing we were being gentle on the planet.

Fabulous day trip with family and friends in the Abel Tasman. The booking process and support was excellent. The day itself was thoroughly enjoyable on board the Jamarh ... OK, it was a classic top-of-the-South summer day but the pace and options with on board equipment was what made it. Many thanks! This little beach is where we stopped for lunch, swimming, kayaking etc

We had an amazing time. Saw seals, birds, loads of dolphins, sting rays, fish. We walked on secluded beaches and dived off the boat with the kids for ages. Scott the skipper was awesome, super friendly and informative, he was happy taking us wherever we wanted. Also great biscuits and tea as well as a delicious packed lunch. Was a real highlight of our trip.

We had the most amazing day with Abel Tasman Sailing, it was by far one of our highlights of our 10 day trip. We walked to Anchorage from Marahau then had the awesome experience of sailing with Mark (the Skipper) who was so kind, knowledgeable, professional and experienced. We learnt a lot, got to relax, felt at home and very safe sailing the beautiful waters. We got to see the seals at Tonga Island too. We were also allowed to take champagne on the trip so we got to relax as we sailed sipping champagne and enjoying the sun. The catamaran was stunning and very clean. Our transfer back was also effortless and all the way through, Abel Tasman Sailing was very professional and down to earth. I highly recommend if you have the opportunity to enjoy the Abel Tasman, a sailing trip with this company is a must.

Did the full day sail 2 weeks ago and it was brilliant. Only my partner and I in the morning and the skipper, Scott, let us turn it into an educational session, getting hands on so that when we loaded on more guests in the afternoon I was already part of the crew! Great that you have the option to relax or get hands on. Big thanks to Scott for letting my pick his brains all day about all things sailing.

We spent a lovely day on the water 9/11/2021 with the unexpected bonus of having the catamaran all to ourselves ... just the Hubby and I. Our captain Martin was super informative amidst the multitude of questions we kept throwing at him. We saw parts of the Abel Tasman we didn't know existed even as locals. Lunch was great too. Seals a plenty on the rocks and in the water and we even saw Blue Penguins swimming. A very relaxing experience amongst stunning scenery. Highly recommended.

The best way to see the Abel Tasman Park in a most relaxing way. You choose if you want to add a walk before or after. The best way to make the most of the Nelson/Abel Tasman area with lots of day and overnight options combining cycling, hiking and sailing. 😊Also great for private celebrations, corporate functions and making the most of the paradise we live in. Highly recommended for memorable experiences and topnotch service.😎👉

Multifaceted day in Able Tasman - I enjoyed the full day sailing trip in able tasman with Abel Tasman Sailing Adventures. The tour was well organised and with small amount of people it we really personally and interessting. The day started with some rain, but it got beatiful in the afternoon. In the morning we had high tide so we could sail into some places normally not accessable by boat. We saw a lot of seals and catched wind in the afternnon. Just great.

This is easily the best way to spend the day or a week in Abel Tasman. The team are awesome, the boats and great and sailing in the Able Tasman is as good as life gets.

After a few days kayaking and walking we decided to treat ourselves with a cruise... this was the best decision of the trip. We arrived to find that the other party booked onto the same trip as us had pulled out at the last minute. Most companies would cancel and give us a refund however they did not do this and instead we ended up with the whole boat to ourselves (just my partner and I). Even better they upgraded us to the newer and bigger boat that had SUP boards and a hammock. Mark was knowledgeable and catered the trip to us and what we wanted to see (we had already been to Anchorage the day before so he took us further to parts we hadn’t seen). Lunch was also delicious and I would highly recommend this trip to anyone.

Seamless signup, check-in, and easy departure from Kaiteriteri. We enjoyed a beautiful water taxi up the coast, explored for a few hours around Anchorage Bay, and then boarded the catamaran for a safe, comfortable, and breathtakingly beautiful sail back to Kaiteriteri with Capt. Mark. I loved taking the helm for awhile and got into the sailing. Excellent value, and a memorable way to see Abel Tasman!

Went on the 10am sailing from Kaiteriteri to Anchorage last Monday and it was incredible!Travis was our caption, very approachable, enthusiastic, funny and clearly knowledgeable on the region. He is a skilled sailer and navigated the catamaran into several small inlets and very near to the seal colony + various highlights along the way - getting the perfect SNAP made easy. The boat is clean, comfortable and a relaxing place to kickback while you take in the amazing Able Tasman. Thanks for making our sailing day the highlight of our trip, I'll be recommending Able Tasman Sailing Adventures from now on!

f.

It was my first time sailing with my two kids.we all enjoyed it.had a chance to see the seals very close.will definitely try this out next time too

We booked a private charter and we were happy that the owner showed up as our captain. With a bunch of land loving rough water fearing folks, he took us on the best sailing day we have ever had up the North coast of Abel Tasman National Park to separation point. After lunch on a relaxing beach, we took a hike and then sailed home. While sailing home we threw a life into the water and pulled up a 9kg Kingfish. I would book this company over and over without hesitation as our captain was rich in experience, personable, and loved kids. He knows the area well and we enjoyed being safe on his boat. Fresh fish to boot...

K.

Recently did a Sail & Walk with Abel Tasman Sailing Adventures from Kaiteriteri to Anchorage. They upgraded us to their luxury sailing catamaran Te Harinui - what a treat! Had a wonderful morning on the boat with skipper/owner Martin. If you are contemplating going sailing in the Nelson region, Abel Tasman Sailing Adventures is greatly recommended.

S.

My friend and I went on a full day sailing adventure 2 days ago and it was amazing! I had done the Abel Tasman before but this was a whole new experience. We had such a relaxing and fun time :-) The lunch was great and massive so no complaints there either! All the staff were friendly and helpful and I'd highly recommend it to anyone travelling as couples, families, friends - one trip fits all!

C.

Perfect day of sailing out in the Tasman Bay with Martin. Loved the impromptu stop at Stillwell bay. Great packed lunch. Good bit of wind for a bit of real sailing. Couldn't fault a thing! Highlight of my trip.

J.

I was able to participate in a cruise today and it was fantastic. It’s the best way BY FAR to see Abel Tasman The captain, Travis, couldn’t have been nicer. Every ran on time and smoothly. I highly recommend this sailing trip for anyone wanting to check out Abel Tasman!

C.

Had an absolutely amazing day sailing around Abel Tasman! Travis, our captain, was knowledgeable, professional and lovely to spend the day with. Such a great (and relaxing) way to see Abel Tasman! Would do it again in a heart beat!

J.

Staff were very accommodating and helpful when we mixed up our booking, and made sure we would still be able to sail. Was a wonderful day out, our skipper was very knowledgeable and we would highly recommend to anyone booking with Abel Tasman Sailing Adventures.

R.

Absolutely fantastic! Such a relaxing way to spend the day, our captain Travis was very knowledgeable and pointed out tons of wildlife for us and told us about the area. Would highly recommend the full day sail - we had so much fun and will definitely be back!

D.

Great day sailing if weather and wind assist a bit. No mass sheep herding tourism but gently looking at the splendid coast line along the queen charlotte track. Very knowledgeable captain. A must adventure on the north of the south.
