amazing experience - I had an amazing experience with this surf school. My instructor Brandon was incredibly friendly, patient, and encouraging. He explained everything clearly and made the lesson both fun and confidence-building. Everyone working there was welcoming and kind as well — from the introduction to the photographer, the whole team created a great atmosphere. I would book this course again anytime. The prices are more than fair for the quality and experience you get. Highly recommended!

Amazing Surf Lesson in Kīhei! - Willow was an amazing instructor! He would provide the feedback after every run to make an improvement. This was our first time taking surf lesson and we had a lot of fun! Kids got confidence to surf by themselves! I highly recommend Maui Surf Club!!

Awesome 1st surf lesson with Brendon Barber!! - Awesome first surf lesson with Brendon Barber through Surf Club Maui! He was super nice, very personable and knowledgeable. We highly recommend you book with him if possible. We got up on our boards multiple times at our first lesson. It was the highlight of our Maui trip. We will be booking this tour again when we're back on Maui.

Amazing experience for my 10 year old - My 10 year old son went and had a blast. His instructor was David and he had a group of 3 teens and my son, all kids got up and rode waves in. My son loved every minute of it. Leilani was the photographer and got some amazing shots. All around 5 stars for this crew. The price was excellent for the length of time they were in thw water and how many times my son rode thw waves in. It was a beautiful area to sit and watch thw lessons. Earlier is better.

The perfect intro to surfing - Our instructor Frede was very patient and gave a thorough safety brief on land before we jumped into the water. The waters at Kalama Beach were gentle and perfect for beginners who are hopping on a board for the first time. We were able to catch some waves pretty quickly. Mahalo!

Great time on the water! - I signed up for three days worth of classes. I had only surfed minimally before and was excited for local guidance for my first time in Kihei as well as tips to improve my surfing. My instructor Bryan was a gem, very kind and good at building skills. Though it may seem pricy, I found it worth every dime. Felt confident renting a board and going out by myself after the lessons. Overall lots of fun and would recommend this to anyone looking to learn how to surf or just looking for a fun highlight activity in Maui/Kihei.

Busy beach for surfers even at 800 am - Good instructor just unfortunately too crowded. There were at least 2 other companies using this same beach. Almost every wave we were side by side another surfer, often limiting the surfing ride, this really impacted our experience.
