At the beginning of november, four months and a half after we arrived in New-Zealand, it was time to discover the south island. Everybody was telling me about how amazing it is. So I went for a  <\/span>two weeks road trip with Franck and Dimitri, a friend from France coming for holidays. Our first stop ? Abel Tasman National Park. <\/span><\/p>\n

This national park is one of the New Zealand\u2019s smallest but also one of the most famous thanks to its golden beaches, turquoise seas and dense forests. It is also the sunniest place in New Zealand. This national park is also well known because it offers one of the nine great walks. Greats walks are tramps over several days in national parks with stunning landscapes. The Abel Tasman great walk\u2019s characteristic is that you can choose to do it walking on earth<\/a> on kayaking in the sea. This is the only great walk, with the Whanganui journey<\/a>, which can be done kayaking. I can\u2019t walk for long distances so, for me, it was the perfect opportunity to do a great walk. So we rent kayaks for two days but we choose not to be part of a guided tour. This way we can do whatever we want, without rush. Moreover a guided tour is very expensive.<\/span><\/p>\n

During these two days we will paddle from Marahau to Onetahuti Bay and we will spend a night in Anchorage Hut<\/a>. We will come back to our starting point by water-taxi. The first day we will paddle for 4 hours an the seconds for 3 hours and a half approximately. <\/span><\/p>\n
