Abel Tasman On the northern tip of New Zealand's South Island, the Nelson area boasts the largest amount of sunshine in the country. That's a perfect climate for getting outdoors! Host Chris Turner ventures along the world-famous Abel Tasman Coastal Track on a three-day hiking and kayak multisport trip.
In the interior, Chris books a "farmstay" with a luxurious lodge, and after wrangling sheep, prepares a delicious monkfish appetizer with the lodge's chef.
