Raglan

Manu Bay is the most famous surf spot, known for its long, smooth left-hand point break, perfect for all levels. Indicators and Whale Bay are also popular spots, offering a variety of waves for different skill levels.

Raglan offers a wide range of activities, including kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, hiking the Mount Karioi track, exploring the Bridal Veil Falls, and enjoying the local art scene and shops.

The best time to visit Raglan is during the summer months (December to February) for warm weather and consistent surf. However, the shoulder seasons (spring and autumn) offer pleasant conditions and fewer crowds.
