The highlight of our summer holidays was definitely our kayaking trip to Mutton Cove where we got to stay one night.
We started at Tata beach in Golden bay and set off across the Wainui Inlet. Unfortunately the swell started to get up and it got a little scary! But a short rest on the first beach was excellent.

We got to see quite a bit of wildlife. Out to sea opposite Whariwharangi beach we watched a seal thrashing an octopus about.

A little further on we spotted a little penguin.

Around separation point we saw a lot of seals
