Sarge was a great surf instructor! He was knowledgeable and offer a ton of tips and advice. Would recommend this to any beginner surfer trying to learn the ropes!

Highly Recommend

Cheri_B, Apr 2024

Not only did they teach me to surf they also took photos of me surfing, which I could purchase for a reasonable price. Great instructor and team.

Great first time surfing

Jill_N, Apr 2024

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.

Great time great fun great lessons

Kevin_H, Jan 2024

Sarge is a great teacher and very encouraging. He really enjoys what he does and it shows. We really enjoyed ourselves. Kai got some great pics of us that made it look like we knew what we were doing. LOL I highly recommend them

Great experience!

Experienced coaches, pay attention to the learners, encourage, and make it fun for the kids. Great picture taken for lasting memories. My boys want to repeat the experience.

Holly_T, Oct 2023

I had an awesome time! I was a little hesitant and nervous since this was my first surfing lesson. The instructor was wonderful. I did a solo trip, and met other solo people in my group. Fun vibes all around!

Surf lesson

Franziska_P, Oct 2023

We booked the surf lesson very spontaneous and it was Great. Professional teachers who know exactly what to say and Show made it very easy for us to do our first surfing experience. It was a Great time!

Perfect surf lesson

Lyra_D, Sep 2023

We signed up last minute the morning of and we had a great time! The instructor and everyone working there was super nice and helpful. I’ve never surfed before and I was still able to ride a decent amount of waves. The small group was great because it gave each person enough time to learn and ride waves without feeling like you have to wait around. It was a great time and I recommend!

Great Maui Experience

Glenn_C, Sep 2023

Our children had a blast. Instructor was fantastic. Fun atmosphere, friendly smiles from the moment we arrived. Both kids were able to ride waves at the end of the day.🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️ Highly recommend. Photos at the end are a great touch👏

Surfing in Kihei, Maui

Gregory_s, Aug 2023

Eps was a wonderful teacher and cool guy to hang out with. He made sure we found a place with good waves. I’d been before in CA and struggled but his instruction helped. .

Maui surf

Laurent_C, Aug 2023

Too many people at 10.00 … book at 8.00 … easy to surf for beginners… instructor very professional and a good sense of humour

great experience

Ryan_H, Aug 2023

the instructor Dave was great, had my 12 year old up adn surfing in just a few minutes. And the phots were awesome as well

Great Instructors for any level of surfingg

Sara_B, Jul 2023

My daughter and my niece did the group lesson. My daughter has never surfed before so she was a little nervous. My niece has surfed before but wanted a refresher.By the time the lesson was over, my daughter wanted to do it again. The instructors are awesome and will work with u even if your a little nervous. The pictures we got of them also turned out nice. Definitely will be back

Good instruction but sneaky expensive.

Robert_T, Jul 2023

Instruction was great but the tipping culture is pervasive and has to end or at least slow down. Even the photographer leans heavily on you for a tip - I mean after all, she had to get in the water and take the pictures. It turned a $200 day (2 surfers) into nearly a $400 day.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Aloha Robert Thank you for the review, I am happy you enjoyed your surfing class with us- since you said your surfing was fantastic I will take your experience with our surf school as a 5/5 star. I will definitely share your feedback regarding photos with the photography company / The photo company we work with is totally separate from our school so I appreciate the feedback-I know the photographers do work hard from taking land shots, in water photos, downloading and preparing your files for immediate airdrop/google drive sending. I am sorry that you felt their service was sneaky and of course tipping is always optional- again - thank you for your feedback and we are happy you had a 5 star experience/ mahalo!

Fantastic!

Emily_P, Jul 2023

My kids loved it. The staff was really nice and patient and now I’m renting surfboards throughout the trip and I see myself purchasing some in my future. They’re addicted now 😊

5/5 First time Surf Experience
