Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

From our house it is absolutely necessary for you to have a car. There is the Abel Tasman National park for hiking, sightseeing and water sports which is under an hour by car from our place to Marahau or Kaiteriteri to start exploring this area.
There is the extensive Tasman Great Taste Cycle Trail with several bike hire shops.
WOW car museum.
Many beautiful beaches close by, such as as Tahunanui, Rabbit Island, Mapua, Kaiteriteri and Marahau.
It is approximately 1.5 hours to drive over the hill to the beautiful Golden Bay with its superb golden sand beaches - handy for visiting Farewell Spit.
Richmond township is only 5 mins drive from home and Nelson city is approximately 20-25 mins drive.
Many eateries and wineries in the area - we do not have any favourites as we are still discovering them all.
The Abel Tasman area is famous for many attractions but one of those is the many art galleries that sells everything from art, pottery, knitted garments and nick nacks.
The Saturday Market from 1000 -1300 is very popular, selling a diverse range of products.
