What To Expect

Meet at the Surf Shack Shop at the Mana Kai Resort in Kihei a little before 8am for this 1.5-hour standup-paddleboard lesson for beginners. Your lesson starts at 8am, so you’ll have an early morning start.

Once you get acquainted with your instructor and he or she sets you up with your equipment, listen to a safety briefing. Your lesson is specifically tailored to your beginner’s skill level. Your group will have a maximum of four people, so you can feel comfortable working closely with your instructor and other group members.

During this lesson, learn about safety and ocean awareness, balance, proper stance and positioning on the board, and proper paddling techniques. Once your group is ready to get going, you'll have to come to a majority agreement of whether to go on a coastal paddle tour or to just hit the Hawaiian waves for extra practice.

Your lesson ends back on the beach where you turn in your equipment and have the rest of the day to do as you please.

Niko did an excellent job training us newbies! 1/2 of us were successful standing up on the boat! It’s harder than it looks
Best Day on the Waves

The instructor was awesome. He was very patient with our grandkids. We all felt very safe. He gave detailed instructions before e went in the water as well as the entire time. He kept our group of six together and took great pics. Seems like a super nice guy and a great photographer! Absolutely would recommend!! 5 ⭐️ Stars
Thank you Rick!

His first time paddle borders we didn’t really know what to expect but Rick made everything so much easier and took care to work with us patiently while we all got up on our boards.
Excellent time in the water

Brandon, our instructor, was very patient with us. He gave lots of tips on how to get up on the board and enjoy our time in the water. Knowledgeable about the islands and paddle boarding.
We saw Turtles and rode with Church

We had an amazing time first time paddle boarding. Our instructor was Church the Dog and his master. Church rode on our board and also was a great wave rider. We had the best time and will come back again.
