At sea there are also New Zealand Sea Lions and Southern Right Whales. Abel Tasman is popular for its easy hiking trail along the coast and kayaking, keep an eye out for New Zealand Fur Seals and Spotted Shags. This is a good place to see the endangered and beautiful Yellowhead and the endemic Yellow-eyed Penguin.
