Destination / Abel Tasman National Park
A long golden beach and important northern access point, useful for scenic cruises, Golden Bay departures and multi-day walking routes.
Overview
Totaranui is a practical and scenic northern gateway. For visitors, it can mean a beautiful beach, a turning point on Vista Cruise routes, a Golden Bay-side access point or the beginning of deeper walks through the northern section of the park.
