Surfing Raglan

Raglan is world famous for its left hand point breaks (Manu Bay, Whale Bay, Indicators), but we also have a fantastic 3km long sandy surf beach, great for beginners and old hands alike.

We have a full range of rental short, long, beginner, and advanced surf boards! We also rent good quality O’Neill summer and winter wetsuits.

Come surf with us!

Surf Package Deals

We have ‘build your own’ surf packages.
Accommodation starts at $29/night in a dorm room (you can upgrade to a private). And Surfing is $30/day, that includes a wetsuit, board, tips and transport to the surf beach.
So, if you stay 4 nights, and surf 5 days that’s a total of $269.
If you surf 5 days, we give you the 6th day free. So an extra night and a surf would only cost another $29!
Weekend getaway Special! $89 
Includes two nights stay and 1 surf! (or two surfs and 1 nights accommodation on weekdays, its up to you!)
We love surfing in Spring…there’s less people at the beach but the sun is starting to warm us up,  and the hot tub feels sooooo good afterwards.
Building your own package:
The nice thing is you don’t have to commit to surfing every day. You decide and pay for what you want to do on the day. If you aren’t surfing we have kayaks that are free to use, and the hot tub and sauna. Plus yoga classes ($10) and bikes for $5/hr.
You’ll meet lots of people and have fun while getting better at surfing.

Raglan surf lessons

Surf Lessons

We surf all year round in Raglan, with surf lessons held everyday of the year (except Christmas day and New Year’s day). The surf lessons take 3 hours, include all the gear and cost $79. It’s a fantastic way to learn the basics, and the next day you can just rent a board and practice what you have learnt with the rest of the guests.

We offer one-on-one lessons for more advanced surfers who have a special issue with their surfing that they want to address (these need to be booked at least two days in advance). $149, all gear included, 3 hour lesson.
