Beginner surf lesson on the North Shore! - Our family decided when in Hawaii….surf! We took a beginner lessons and were beyond pleased with our experience. Our instructors HUSTLED. I was so impressed by their ability to tow us on our surfboards, provide feedback and constant encouragement, and celebrate the lessons’ wins.

Fun, personalized - My lesson ended up being one-on-one and was fantastic. The spot was great, the parking was easy and close. I got to ride waves until I was wore out. It was a great start to vacation.

Absolutely Amazing First Time Experience! - Both Kalani and Keoni are amazing instructors! They both ensured our safety and supplied any and all equipment for my group's first time experience with surfing. From the beginning until the end of the lesson, they were both encouraging and extremely supportive. They stressed the importance of being patient, going at your own pace, having fun, all whip placing safety above everything else. If you have any concerns, be at ease. You'll be in great hands, catch some waves and have an amazing experience! And I say this as a person who doesn't even know how to swim! This was definitely the highlight of my vacation!

Amazing and very professional instructor. - The instructor was very responsive when I had a question before the class. I do not speak English, and he found ways for us to understand each other; very professional and very kind. I recommend him 100%. If I return to Hawaii, I will book another class with him.

Good teacher and the kids... - Good teacher and the kids had a great experience. The beach was rocky so not great for those who aren’t surfing. The lesson was 90 minutes.

You ABSOLUTELY want to hang with these guys. THE BEST! 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻 - Can’t recommend these guys enough! Lifelong surfers who are super positive, knowledgeable, and funny. Extremely patient with my little surfers and offered new and different tips every time we went out after catching a wave. Absolute 5 star, 10/10 experience. Look forward to the next time! Thank you for a fantastic experience. 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

Anyone can surf on the North Shore with ease! - This is my daughter's second participation in a year. 8:30 course. It took about 40 minutes to get here by Waikiki Kura Rent-a-Car. It all started when I saw "Hawaii ni Koishite" and became interested in surfing. Best of all, the local teachers are kind and friendly in Japanese. Anyone can ride the waves if you do what you are told! I'll join you again when I come to Oahu!
