The Top of the South Island

Checking out the Abel Tasman from the water
Split Apple Rock



Happy Hour in Kaiteriteri
Salmon Fishing in the rain at Anatoki
Success!
Fresh smoked salmon and sashimi for lunch and fillets for dinner...yes we had salmon for the next 6 meals...
Sunshine after the flooding in Golden Bay. A spot of fishing and the beach to ourselves at Paturau.

A little home schooling on the beach.

On the beach checking out Farewell Spit.

Another amazing beach - this time Wharariki Beach where we got to watch baby seal pups at play.



Te Waikoropupu Springs (Pupu Springs) - the water clarity is one of the best in the world with visibility to 63 metres.


Our third overnight hike in NZ. This time we walked into Whariwharangi Hut and stayed for two nights.
Sand, sun, sea and sculptures once we got to the hut.



Dinner at Wharewharangi Hut...

and bedtime stories.
Another day of hiking.
