Start your day with a water taxi ride to Torrent Bay via the iconic Split Apple Rock. Enjoy your unguided walk through native flora to Cleopatra's pool, a hidden taonga (treasure) of the Abel Tasman, and on to Observation Beach. Here you will meet your friendly guide for your afternoon kayak who will lead you through the sheltered Astrolabe waters, visiting the NZ Fur Seal (kekeno) at Adele Island. As the sea breeze builds, we set the sail and cruise back into Mārahau.
