We were there Nov ‘24 to Feb ‘25.
We did an unguided paddle around the coast of Abel Tasman Park. The company is Golden Bay Kayaks.
It was an awesome trip as we had quite short paddle days and took 5 days. Beautiful beaches for camping. The kayak was a good seaworthy tandem which got us through some rough seas.
Had to book campsites in advance on this popular park.  Great trip!
On Stewart Island we did a one day guided paddle with Phil’s Sea Kayak. It was the best day of paddling of my life. He also does expeditions.
Good luck with planning.
