Manu Bay Reserve park is a chill spot in Raglan where you can kick back and watch the surfers catch some epic waves at Manu Bay. With toilets, showers, and easy parking, it's a convenient place to hang out and soak up the beach vibes. Just follow Wainui Road all the way to the reserve, find a spot to park, and enjoy the view of the surf from up high.

For photography definitely take your mid to close range zoom lens especially for capturing the surfers when the waves are pumping. Beautiful during the golden hours of sunrise and sunset this is a great spot to practice sport and fast shutter photography.
