What is Rotota?

Rotota Sun Club Inc. is a non-profit incorporated society. Our primary objective as detailed in our constitution is “to provide a safe an welcoming environment where members and guests may enjoy social activities, relaxation and recreation – free of clothes“.

Sun clubs are also known as naturist clubs or nudist clubs. Rotota is situated on the sunny shores of Lake Ohakuri, across the water from Orakei Korako but on the same side as the “hidden valley”. Our name comes from the local towns Rotorua, Tokoroa and Taupo. Our members are based mainly in the North Island of New Zealand but we do have some South Island and European members too. Rotota offers a refreshing back-to-basics environment for natural recreation in the centre of New Zealand’s North Island. There is no mains power and our geographical isolation is part of the attraction for many of our members.  We rely on solar power for lighting, wood for heating in the winter and gas for refrigeration and cooking.

Whether it’s socialising, swimming, boating, soaking in natural hot-spring water, hot geothermal streams or simply relaxing in the sun, Rotota has something to make a visit worthwhile for you.
