When in Hawaii - surf! - Tommy was a great. Instructor and the surfing was good this day. My son had such a great time he wanted to rent boards and go out again after just one lesson!

Must do experience - Great first lesson for my daughter. Aria was a good teacher and we caught our first waves with Diamond Head as a backdrop. Highly recommended

Great for novice surfers - Great experience for novice surfers. Josh and James were patient and professional. Surfing in Waikiki- Bucket list checked!

Excellent instructor - husband surfed his first ever wave in Waikiki! Awesome gift idea. - I had booked this for my husband's birthday and since the minimum people to book was 2, I decided to try it as well. Surfing ended up not being for me - I was way too nervous about standing on the board and it was a bit overwhelming when in the moment on a wave because it feels like you go SO FAST - but my husband had an awesome time and we are both so thankful to the instructor, Trevor, for being so friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and passionate about the area, our safety, and making sure we had as good of a time as possible. Trevor also tried his best to pump up my confidence after some wipe-outs so I appreciate that too :-p But in the end, I am most happy that my husband got up on a wave (his first ever!) and we definitely feel like we got our money's worth for having the attention just on us for the lesson. Trevor made sure we got all the motions right on the beach before we went into the water so he will make sure you are safe and as ready as you can be. Would certainly recommend and I'm glad I at least tried it!

Great first surfing experience - Dan Dan did a great job teaching the two of us to surf. We both were able to stand up and surf a wave on our first or second attempt. Surfed about 8 waves each. It is exhausting so be prepared. Tons of fun! It is a small business but we did not have any issues and I like supporting the smaller guides. Would do it again.

Great surf lesson and experience - Had a great time with my son and was a first for each of us learning to surf. James was an excellent instructor and was very patient with us. I would not hesitate to use this company again and it was a great value!

Fun surf day! - It was just two of us for an hr and a half. We were very inexperienced and had a blast. Trevor was a great instructor, super great experience overall!

Fantastic Experience for First Time Surfers! - We had an amazing lesson with Trevor of Gone Surfing! It was just my husband and I, and Trevor gave us a quick land lesson on the basics - how to paddle, how to stand up, common mistakes to avoid- and then we were off in the water! We were given a rash guard and a place to store our things, then had our boards strapped on and we went out to the water. Trevor helped carry out boards into the water (heavier than you think!!) and then helped paddle us out to where we surf (which is MUCH MUCH harder than you think) and then we got to surfing, which was easier than you think due to great instruction! Trevor had us surfing alone and together on multiple waves - I would guess we rode around 10 waves each? When we got back in, we got to see all of the great pics and videos Mackenzie took of us, and now have a great momento of a great afternoon ! definitely recommend a surfing lesson with Gone Surfing when you’re in Hawaii!

Our instructor was Nate,... - Our instructor was Nate, he was very nice. We were both very nervous and getting over fears today. He was very understanding and was easy going. It made it very easy to be comfortable and feel safe out there in the water. We both stood up on our boards and surfed. Just listen to the instructors and they will tell you everything you need to know! It was a great experience, and we both had a crazy adrenaline rush after wards. Totally recommend!

Great experience! - Our menor is Trevor, he is great and always encourages us for our surfing. Though the first time surfing, we can almost successfully stand up on the board! This is a great experience. We really recommend this surfing lesson!
