Wahinemoe - Raglan Boat Charters Raglan, Waikato District

Wahinemoe is one of Raglan's most recognised and loved tourism experiences. Operating on Whaingaroa Harbour since 2010, the business has built a strong reputation for creating memorable experiences on the water, from scenic cruises and private celebrations to corporate events and bespoke charters.

Over the past six seasons, the current owner has successfully grown the business into a respected and award-winning operation with strong forward bookings, loyal repeat customers and proven systems that make day-to-day management straightforward.

One of the business's standout features is its simplicity. The current owner manages the operation from home, spending approximately five hours per week on administration, bookings and oversight. With established procedures and reliable systems already in place, a new owner can step into a well-organised business without the demands often associated with tourism operations.

Guests love the relaxed atmosphere onboard and the chance to experience Raglan Harbour from a unique perspective. It's a business built around creating great memories, which is why customers continue to return year after year.

Wahinemoe has held Qualmark Gold accreditation since 2021 and has received Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Awards in four of the past five years, placing it among the world's top-rated tourism experiences.

While already successful, there is still plenty of opportunity for a new owner to grow the business further through additional charters, events, partnerships and new tourism experiences.
