Abel Tasman National Park
The boat tour picked us up in Kaiteriteri and carried us along the north coast, into many inlets and bays, and finally dropped us at Awaora Bay. We wandered along the sand, feeling like we were almost on a deserted island, then back through the forest to a small lodge. Farther down the path was an eating area with brick oven pizza! In the middle of nowhere! It sits along a hiking path that many people take (1, 2, or 3 days) through the park. Such a chill vibe…hikers and day visitors, just sitting under fruit trees, eating stellar pizza and drinking local wines/beers.
