Two Person Split Private Lesson

Please bring a sturdy swimsuit or board shorts, sunscreen, towel and water. (Reef-Safe NOTE: ONLY zinc/titanium dioxide sunscreens are legal in Maui County) If you have (non-cotton) leggings bring them to the class. Leggings are helpful to prevent the rash from the softop & sunburns on the back of the legs.

Surfboard, long-sleeve rash guard, and booties.

Our Maui surf school is based at a beautiful stretch of coastline called “1000 Peaks” or Ukumehame Beach Park.

If you sign up for a 1 person group surf lesson, and you end up being the only person in the class, you will be notified by 5pm the day before your lesson, with the option to switch to a group lesson at a different time, or upgrade to a private lesson (for an additional fee).

Yes! We can work with larger groups. Depending on the size and age ranges of your group, you may be split into smaller groups for the lesson. Please email [email protected] to check for availability and group rate pricing.
A minimum of two weeks is preferred for groups of that size, or longer during peak travel times of summer, winter or spring break.

5 years old is our youngest. Please note that 11 and under are required to book a private lesson, and children must be 13 or older to join a group surf lesson. Our oldest has been 75 (It’s never too late to learn!)

Yes, we do have a swim requirement. You must know how to tread water. Our surf break is fairly far out in the water, so being a strong swimmer and being comfortable in the ocean is extremely helpful.

Smaller children (under 70 pounds) will likely tandem surf with their instructor (riding on the front of their instructors’ board) and they are welcome to wear floaties or a lifejacket for extra buoyancy and warmth.

Yes of course! We suggest a private surf lesson for intermediate surfers so we can spend 1 on 1 time progressing your skills. A majority of our students are 1st timers. Our coaches are still great at coaching to everyone’s individual abilities in a group class. Just note when you register that you have surf experience and prefer a hard top surfboard.

So we can outfit you with the right sized surfboard.

We recommend taking non-drowsy Dramamine or anti-seasick medication. People have gotten seasick on a surfboard, but it’s preventable.

Everyone has their own learning progression with the sport. We do our very best to set you up for success with the right sized gear and personalized coaching. For some students they get up on their first try and others may take a second lesson to get up. We have a great success rate with our students!

Yes, we offer 10% off multiple surf lesson bookings. We can certainly tailor a private surf lesson package for intermediate surfers. Please email [email protected] to set something up.
