This location being first on the list is very appropriate. It qualifies for one of the most beautiful settings we have visited anywhere. New Zealand is home to overly-gorgeous landscapes - like Wales or Scotland on steroids; Abel Tasman was our favourite.
We were visiting our son and his partner who were in Hamilton on a two-year secondment. they travelled with us some of our journey. Here, they went into the park for two days on a sea-kayaking expedition. We took a boat in and walked back (approx 5-6 hrs) along the coast. We were rewarded with clearings, streams, caves and always a pretty view of the sea.
The following day we learned of the Christchurch earthquake which was to drastically change our experience of the rest of our holiday.
