Great first time surfing - This was a highlight of our trip! Pablo and Nico were great instructors. It was the first time surfing for myself and my teens. The waves were small so it was a good place to learn. We also were surfing with sea turtles so that was fun too. They have a photographer out with you if you want to buy pictures from your day.

Must Do For Families with Teens! - Scheduled a morning class for a family of 4 - M-48, F-48, M-18, M-16. Walter was an amazing teacher who truly loved teaching. He was able to get ALL of us up on boards and riding the waves. Our teenage sons caught on quickly with Walter’s guidance and they rank their surfing experience as #1 on their list of best experiences in Maui. They know where and when to be to make sure the experience is perfect. Another great thing about Surf Club Maui is on-site professional photographers. Kai (who has a magical ability to make even the most inexperienced moms look cool) was in the water snapping away, cheering us on, and capturing incredible memories that we couldn’t do ourselves. For a reasonable fee, we were able to purchase over 100 photographs of our 2-hour experience. The entire staff was patient and kind and were a hard-working, organized team. 5 stars, two thumbs up and SHAKA! 🤙

Family surf experience from son’s perspective. - I’ve always wanted to learn how to surf and Surf Club Maui was a perfect place to learn. I had a great instructor Epp, and he really helped me learn how to fix my mistakes and get to my full potential. Within two lessons I was able to rent a board myself and surf on my own. The photographer Kai took some amazing photos from in the water that were really cool to see afterwards. You could really tell everyone here knew what they were doing and have been surfing/taking photos for a long time. Epp’s great coaching even allowed my mom and dad to learn how to surf which is cool. Overall 11 out of 10 experience and would recommend anyone coming to Maui old or young. Great time and fun for everyone.

Teenagers gave it a 10/10! - This excursion was my idea and my young adult and teenage children were skeptical. After their lesson, they said it was a 10/10 experience which is high praise! Sarge was SO knowledgeable and personable! All members of my group were able to get up and ride the waves with ease. They looked like pros by the end of the lesson!! I would highly recommend this adventure!

FANTASTIC - We had an amazing time with Sarg. Never surfed before and we were doing it within minutes. They know the perfect places to surf and the best waves for beginners. Hands down our favorite part of the trip so far.

Make sure to book your surfing lessons! - We had the best time!! Family of 4 - kids 14 and 16 and we all got up on the first try and we were totally surfing! Brian was an amazing instructor and he made the session really fun. There have photographers on staff that are in the water who take these amazing pics for purchase and the other highlight was the turtles. Nothing is cooler or more Hawaiian than surfing beside turtles! Highly recommend it!!!
