Spring

Te Puketea Bay, Abel Tasman Coast Track

Step into spring in Nelson Tasman and feel the warmth for yourself

There’s no better time to explore Nelson Tasman than spring. The days stretch longer, the sun’s out in full force, and the crowds haven’t caught on yet. Start with a stroll through the vineyards or a long lunch at a local café. Take a boat trip into Abel Tasman National Park, where the water sparkles and the tracks are wide open. Or wind your way over to Golden Bay, where beaches feel endless and locals still have time for a yarn.

Spring’s wide open so go where the day takes you

Whatever your pace, spring’s the season to slow down, soak it up, and taste the good life.

Sort your stay and make it a proper getaway

Spring is the perfect time to savour the season's freshness

Forests and fields come alive with birdsong and greenery, exuding a sense of renewal. Seal pups frolic in the water, newborn lambs bound through fields, fresh buds awaken, and the landscape adopts a vibrant new colour palette.

It's an ideal time for cycling, walking, and enjoying the great outdoors among stunning natural landscapes. It's also the perfect time to indulge in our local flavours and meet the talented artisans who call our region home.
