Why Come?
The laid-back vibe. A creative, artistic feel. The bohemian spirit. Call it what you want, but this magnetic force draws in an attractive mix of friendly locals, curious travelers, and keen surfers. Raglan gets compared to an old-school Byron Bay – from 20 years ago. Yet, our town has its own special identity.
With three world-class point breaks and a user-friendly beach break, Raglan is New Zealand’s premier surf town. The surf breaks cater to all ability levels ranging from first-timers to the world’s best.
So as you can imagine, Raglan has become a very popular spot for beginner and intermediate surfers to come and take surf lessons. The surf schools in Raglan are among the best in New Zealand.
And while many arrive here because of the surf, Raglan’s cruisy vibe has a powerful effect on all visitors. Just ask around, and you’ll soon discover how many people get “stuck” in Raglan for so long. Beware, Raglan might cast its spell on you too. Feel free to quit your day job!
With beautiful surroundings, new arrivals are greeted with the backdrop of Mt. Karioi. Challenge yourself with a full-day summit ascent – or simply enjoy one of Raglan’s shorter bushwalks. Visit the spectacular Bridal Veil Falls. Explore the crystal clear waters of our stunning harbour and its pancake rocks. And, of course, head over to Ngarunui Beach for a stroll along its black volcanic sand and have a go at riding a green wave!
The surfing in Raglan is great, but it’s not the ONLY thing we have to offer! Get out there and explore!
