Cayoning in Able Tasman was awesome... However not for the faint of heart! Definitely scared me numerous time. Rappels and zip lines where awesome, slides were a little scary... But the jumps... OMG... So scary. I couldn't even do the second one (despite amazing and cute, lol, guides).

Most everything you go solo - however this was the party slide lol

Visit to Split Apple Rock Beach was beyond excellent; Great walk to Harwoods Hole, although the drive to the car park was a bit taxing and the hole itself is a little underwhelming. Local fruit orchards and hop fields were good to see.

4/5 - Good

Not a lot happening in Motueka, but very handy for access to Abel Tasman NP
