This is one of the most popular surf beaches in Raglan, known for its black sand, which comes from volcanic activity in the region. It has a beautiful backdrop of hills, headlands, wild vegetation, and a coastal forest, with many tree ferns, nikau palm, kawakawa, and kowhai, creating a picturesque setting along the Tasman Sea.  This beach is part of Wainui Reserve Bush Park, which is a protected area and is promoted as an ecotourism destination, encouraging sustainable tourism practices that preserve its natural environment and marine life.
