Raglan is a small quiet little surfer town on the west coast of New Zealand. It was definitely the type of place where I would want to stay for a few weeks. I stayed in this surf camp lodge located on a mountain by the ocean, in the middle of a jungle and a view of the glow worms that New Zealand is known for. The surf is pretty good here but if it’s ever flat you can drive 35 min further south to where it’s always about 2-3ft if flat in Raglan. I also recommend you see the Bridal Veil Falls. It’s not too far from there and totally worth the 10 minute hike with different levels of views. Raglan made me feel so relaxed. When your seeing these things and traveling through such a beautiful country, life feels surreal.
