An underwater observation window offers spectacular viewing of the incredibly clear waters and brightly colored plant life.
The adventurous can enjoy horse trekking amongst dramatic scenery, kayaking, and paddleboarding within the bay and Abel Tasman National Park. There is also a scenic cruise available from Totaranui through the Abel Tasman National Park through to Kaiteriteri.
There are charter scenic flights available nearby which provide spectacular views of the bay, and also operate a service for those doing the Heaphy track.
