From Nelson we drove to Marahau the start or end point of the Abel Tasman Coastal Track. We took a water taxi to Anchorage and walked the 14 km back.
Our Aqua Taxi goes into the water pulled by a tractor.
The boat goes into the water.
We saw the split apple rock along the way.
Anchorage beach…
… a beautiful beach.
First the weather was cloudy. But the beach was stunning!
We had beautiful views along the track.

native forest.
Natural bench in Appeltree Bay beach.
Mike had a nap…
A selfie!
I put my feet in the water… and then…
… I took a bath. The water was quite cool.
I went swimming for a few minutes in the South Pacific Ocean!
Later we stopped at Coquille Bay, another beautiful beach!
A woman went swimming and saw a shark in the water. She shouted and swam quickly to the shore. She then told us. We are all listening deciding not to go swimming there anymore.
Later we drove to Kaiteriteri a beautiful beach, where the Little, blue penguins can be around. We didn`t see any, there were too many people!
I love Kaiteriteri.
