Waggrakine is an outer northern suburb of Geraldton, Western Australia in the local government area of the City of Greater Geraldton.

[3] In 1870, colonial governor Frederick Weld authorised the establishment of an experimental coffee plantation, based on observations by Charles Grenfell Nicolay that the local geography was similar to that of Brazil's coffee-growing districts.

Nicolay was granted 640 acres (260 ha) of land, government funding of £100 (equivalent to $0 in 2022), and access to five ticket of leave convicts.

However, by 1873 the plantation had proved unsuccessful, "due mainly to the persistently strong winds and lack of rainfall".

[4] A cottage and well on the site – known as the Coffee Pot – are heritage-listed.
