Rawhiti is my first choice to access the BOI game fishing grounds if coming from the south. The Whanau at the ramp charge $10 a night for the trailer and car. Good idea to turn up with 10 dollar notes not hundies...you cant blame them for a bit of northland entreprenuership. excuse the spelling, very big word.
