Whale Bay is the second of the well-known Raglan point breaks. It is a long left-hand point break on a boulder/rock beach. The wave is the softest of the three Raglan points. The wave starts with a easy drop in, into a fat section. Careful at this point, as there is a big rock to avoid in the middle of the break. The wave then boils and sucks up a bit more with a faster section. It is better on the lower tide. Jump off the rocks at the point, western end of the bay, to join the line-up. Be careful on the rocks. Good anywhere from 2-12 foot.
Manu Bay is the first, and most popular, of the well-known Raglan point breaks. It is a long left-hand point break on a boulder beach. The wave reels across the whole bay, round past the boat ramp. The wave starts with a hollow drop in, into a barrel section, then works into a long wally section. It is hollower and faster on the lower tide. Jump off the rocks at the point, western end of the bay, to join the line-up. Be careful on the rocks. Good anywhere from 2-10 foot. There is also an outside section, further west round the point, called Boneyards.
