Ruapuke is a small farming community (mostly sheep and cattle farmers). We are located in the Waikato region on the slopes of Karioi. Ruapuke is in-between between Raglan and Kawhia, New Zealand. Ruapuke is one of Raglan’s best kept secrets, Ruapuke beach is a real beauty with the untouched sand dunes. The beach is only a short drive on a gravel road so don’t let that put you off. It is well worth the drive! Come and see our Raglan Bed and Breakfast accommodation for yourself.
