The Camper Experience

Summer Surf Camp for Teens:

Once you arrive on Maui, you’ll be greeted at the airport by our friendly staff and shuttled with other campers to our oceanfront A-frame cabin facility, the ultimate setting for a surf camp. After meeting your “cabin mama” and settling in, we’ll have some fun ice-breaker activities and a special opening ceremony where you’ll also meet your surf coach and CIT, who will teach you everything you’ll need to know about surfing from loading surfboards onto the vans to carving down the face of the wave.

On surf session mornings, we’ll drive just a few miles to our designated surf spot for a two hour surf lesson. Your surf pod will alternate start times each day, so some mornings you’ll be on Dawn patrol grabbing a quick continental breakfast before heading to the beach then returning to camp for downtime and fun at-camp activities before lunch. Other mornings you will be on Wahine patrol, sleeping in a little, then having a hot breakfast before stretching out with your surf pod before your surf lesson.

For lunch, the whole camp crew will reconvene and refuel on healthy grinds prepared by our private chefs. The camp director will do announcements during lunch letting everyone know what the game plan is for the day. Every day is a new adventure! We all head back to camp for a delicious dinner and evening activities then it’s lights out at 9:30pm so we can be well rested to do it all over again the next day. We make sure you get a good balance between downtime and fun time!

Accommodations

Camp Olowalu is open to the public, but our particular ‘cabin’ area is directly on the beach, and reserved just for our use! Camp features oceanfront A-frame cabins with 6 twin beds with memory-foam toppers (5 campers of similar age + 1 CIT share each cabin). There are 4 private toilets and two private showers, and one open-air, public outdoor shower. We also have our own kitchen and mess hall with lots of room to spread out or come together!  It’s the perfect venue for our summer surf camp for teens!  For more photos of camp, check out the Gallery

Meals

Our Teen Camp chef and kitchen assistants lovingly create three healthy meals from scratch daily. They keep our campers and staff fueled up with nutritious and delicious meals, with ample snacks and a selection of non-caffeinated, non-carbonated beverages available throughout the camp session.

In 2025, Dairy and/or Gluten Free options will be a $75 upgrade due to the rising costs of specialty food products.

Waving Reviews

Maui Surfer Girls has changed my life in so many ways personally and professionally. Started coming in 2005 and been in different roles. It’s really hard to put into words without crying. It’s like the first place i felt like I could really be me. I came here shy quiet and scared. This place, this community was a safe space for me to be strong, learn how to surf, be in my body, and to be unconditionally supported. This led me to realize that love and care is something that everybody deserves.
