Surfing Raglan

Our rentals

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.

Need a ride? We provide transport to the beach in our all electric car

BUILD YOUR OWN PACKAGE

Accommodation starts at $29/night in a dorm room (you can upgrade to a private). And Surfing is $39/day, that includes a wetsuit, board, tips and transport to the surf beach.
So just send us a message and let us know how many days you want to stay and how many days you want to surf.
For example: if you stay 4 nights, and surf 5 days that’s a total of $310.
If you surf 5 days, we give you the 6th day free. So an extra night and a surf would only cost another $29!
The nice thing is you don’t have to commit to surfing every day. You decide and pay for what you want to do. And if you aren’t surfing we have kayaks that start from $20, and the hot tub and sauna. Plus yoga classes ($10) and bikes for $5/hr.

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.
