20 day Ultimate New Zealand Thrills Tour

Raglan Boat Charters is located at the Raglan Wharf on Whaingaroa Harbour, the West Coast of New Zealand's North Island, 40 kms from Hamilton and approx 150kms from Auckland, Tauranga and Rotorua. About our Cruises: Departing Raglan Wharf aboard the Wahinemoe to explore the charm of Whaingaroa Harbour – cruise past large conservation reserves, farmland and fishing villages. You will see marine wildlife and ancient limestone rock formations, and listen to fascinating tales about the history and culture of this very special area. Your friendly skipper and crew will take great care of you and make sure you have a magical experience. The sunset cruise is the best and its extremely rare on the west coast to find such an excellent viewpoint.

Experience the magic of the North Island's eastern regions. From the purest white sandy beaches in the Coromandel to the remoteness of the East Cape, on this journey you will marvel at the coastal scenery, from within your car or on the water.

Hike all the majestic volcanic peaks of the North Island on this epic volcanic trail. This truly unique journey encompasses 3 of the North Island's National Parks and visits the perfectly shaped volcanic cone of Mt Taranaki in Egmont National Park, the world famous Tongariro Crossing in the Tongariro National Park (and much more once you leave the tourist trail), and the prehistoric forests of Te Urewera National Park - just like they were millions of years ago. Each of the hikes will be multi-day adventures. Reward your feet at a well deserved Polynesian Spa after all those efforts. This journey will leave you mesmerized.

UP Surf Coaching is all about providing high quality surf coaching for those that want more than a one off experience. Our aim is for you to actually feel like a surfer at the end of one of our surf courses – ready to surf on your own with confidence. On the 'Become a Surfer' course you will be equipped with all the skills and knowledge you need. Group sizes are always 6 or less people - you get a lot of personal attention and have space to move around without a huge crowd all around you. The course progresses in stages from mastering the basics in the whitewater, using your rails and starting to focus on surfing across small waves, then getting you out the back to catch bigger unbroken waves. You'll be surprised how fast you progress.
