About Us

We are a family run local business. We are people who love the outdoors, we appreciate the beauty of nature and all that it holds. We are about experiences, about memories created and treasured, and above all having fun in life.

We are small family run business, we strive to ensure you all have a personalised and memorable time on our tours.

We have fantastic experienced skipper/guides to show you the best bits of the Abel Tasman National Park, we are all great advocates for the conservation of this beautiful park and love to showcase this to our customers.

Clive and I own and manage the day to day running of Abel Tasman Eco Tours, and as well as this we also run Tern Coffee House on Church Street in central Nelson.

We both love being out on the water and experiencing the beauty of the nature that surrounds this region.

We all feel very fortunate to be working in some of the most stunning places in New Zealand and we can’t wait to take you out and share this beauty with you all.
