Must do! - The experience was top notch! I booked the experience two days earlier and was excited that they had room for us. The morning of, we received more specific instructions and asked if we would be willing to move our time up an hour (which worked perfectly for us). I loved supporting a woman owned business and anticipated a woman instructor.
Though shocked to learn they had multiple instructors some of which (maybe just one) are male, Josh was amazing! He gave us a great experience and we absolutely loved learning how to surf. I was initially nervous about riding a famous North Shore wave, the cove we learned in was very safe and fun!
Highly recommend! They provide you a rash guard . I would encourage some yoga skin tight leggings as well as to not get rash burn from sitting to paddling on your board.

WOW! - I brought my adult kids and my grandkids and these ladies did a remarkable job teaching them all. Very impressive! Every one of them--from 10 to 42 years old-- was thrilled to be out on the waves. We will definitely come back and do it again!

Great experience - Great coach. She took her time with us and was very supportive in the water. Obviously very experienced, as she able to get 2 middled aged total newbies almost on our feet surfing. I would definitely recommend them if you are looking for surf lessons on the North Shore

Success on the North Shore - My two sons and I had a 2 hour lesson from Josh in July. Josh was a fantastic instructor. He was encouraging and patient with us. I didn’t do that well because I got seasick and had to quit mid way into our lesson. However my boys did really well and were able to ride wave after wave. They were happy that they learned to surf and on top of of that, it was on the North Shore! Thanks Josh for your great work!

Awesome, supportive surfing lessons - everyone stood up! - Carol (owner) and Aimee (manager) were our surf guides and we were in good hands. They provided differentiated instruction for all six of us (two adults and four teen/young adults at differing fitness levels). In two hours, all six of us made it to a stand and rode some waves. It was nice to support a female-owned and run company and they interacted well with all us and were great with "older" first timers. This was our kids' favorite activity of our Hawaiian vacation. And super-cute women's t-shirts for sale too. (Wear loads of sunscreen on the backs of your legs - all six of us fried).

Great Lessons - The ladies with North Shore Surf Girls did an excellent job teaching my two boys in their beginner surfing lessons. They were both able to stand up on their boards and had a great time. Definitely recommend!

Excellent experience! - Great time! Cora and Nu’u were our coaches, both were super friendly & personable. Cora gave very clear instructions during training and they both gave direction out in the water. This was the first time our group tried surfing and we all stood up on boards. Favorite activity we’ve done on the island. Highly recommend.

Fantastic surf school - My friend and I originally signed up for a beginner group lesson, and we enjoyed it so much that we ended up doing two more semi-private lessons. All of our instructors were fantastic - they are extremely knowledgeable and supportive, and will progress you through different skills as you’re ready. They also take the safety of their students very seriously. I can’t recommend them enough!

First Timers - Awesome day with NSSG!!! - Our family of 4 had an amazing experience with North Short Surf Girls. My husband and I are in our mid 40’s and we have 9 and 13 year old daughters. All four of us had never surfed before and we were all able to get up and ride many waves. We received excellent instruction, loved the family time in the water, and just enjoyed the experience! I would highly recommend.
