About
Just a short walk from Medlands Beach and bordering the Tonga Island Marine Reserve in the Abel Tasman National Park is Bark Bay.
Bark Bay/Wairima is a beautiful beach along the coastal track with a tidal estuary snaking behind it and was originally a site where tree harvesting used to take place (hence the name). The beach is best known for its glorious year-round sun, tranquil beach-front campsite, large lagoon playground and more recently, for the thriving array of birdlife that call the bay home.
