Raureka is a suburb of Hastings City, in the Hawke's Bay Region of New Zealand's North Island.

The suburb has three council-owned parks: Ebbett Park, St Leonards Park and Whenua Takoha Reserve. Raureka locals established a campaign in 2018 to stop the council selling part of Ebbett Park to developers.

Raureka has a community hub with community gardens based at Raureka School.
