	Abel Tasman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Abel Janszoon Tasman (1603 - October 10, 1659), was a Dutch seafarer and explorer, born in Lutjegast, a village in the province of Groningen, best known for his voyages of 1642 and 1644, in the service of the VOC (Dutch East India Company).
		At the northern end of the South Island he anchored the ships in a bay, where five of his sailors were killed in his first and only encounter with the Māori.
		Hence the attack that night.) Tasman named it Murderers' Bay (now known as Golden Bay) and sailed north, but mistook Cook Strait for a bight (naming it Zeehaen's Bight), believing Staten Landt to be a single land, and part of Terra Australis.

	Tasman Highway
		To the north, Bicheno is a small fishing town with fantastic diving, and it’s a convenient place from which to visit both the Freycinet National Park (and its tiny settlement of Coles Bay) and the Douglas Apsley National Park inland.
		The highway detours inland at St Marys, although there’s a more recently built road that allows you to follow the coast and enjoy spectacular views without having to tackle any hills.
		This is mostly dairy country, although there’s the odd patch of surviving rainforest and the remnants of a tin-mining industry, based around the Blue Tier, a mountain that experienced a mining boom in the 1870s.
