The Tasman community covers the area from the Bluffs, with its stunning views across Tasman Bay, to Mariri and the lovely vistas across the Moutere Estuary. This area has traditionally produced apples and pears and has been very much a rural landscape.


In recent years we have welcomed the addition of vineyards and olive groves, along with a growing artistic community. This makes Coastal Tasman a unique place for the visitor to enjoy, with potteries, vineyards, studios, beaches, stunning golf course, cafés, and an excellent range of accommodation — with the bonus of friendly local people who will make you very welcome.

 

The region’s first “Taste Tasman” was a day-long event. Held on the grounds of Tasman School, the event served the dual purpose of celebrating Tasman’s current diversity and raising money for both the school and the wider community.
