All meals are prepared by our professional chefs (the food is first rate!!!). This includes some serious BBQ's!! The students' accommodation is at the Karioi Outdoor Adventure Centre which is located near the beach in Whale Bay. All surfing equipment is available and included in the cost of the camp. The main focus of the camps is of course on SURFING... and is for students of all levels from absolute beginners through to the more advanced.

Everyone receives plenty of coaching suitable to their level during the camp. There is also a big emphasis on water safety and beach awareness. If the conditions are not suitable for surfing we have a wide variety of other fun activities available including a surfboard factory tour and surfboard maintenance and repair module...Waignaro hot springs, mountain trekking, kayaking etc.

The Raglan Surfing School is the first surf school in New Zealand to be recognised and affiliated with Water Safety NZ and Surfing New Zealand.
