Surf Lessons
Two hours, a board that suits you, and an instructor who reads the set before it arrives. Most people are standing before the lesson ends.
Reserve →Hilo · Waikoloa · Kailua-Kona
Boards, snorkel gear and beach setups ready the day you land. Lessons with people who grew up in this water. Three shops on the Big Island.
01 — Who we are
We are not a kiosk in a hotel lobby. We are three shops run by people who surf before work and paddle after it, on an island where the water changes character every few miles.
So when you ask which board, we ask where you’re going and what you’ve ridden before. Then we hand you something that will actually work. That is the whole business.
02 — On the water
Two hours, a board that suits you, and an instructor who reads the set before it arrives. Most people are standing before the lesson ends.

Masks that seal, fins that fit, and honest directions to the bays worth your morning. We will tell you which ones to skip, too.

Glass water, offshore light, and the island waking up behind you. Board, paddle and leash included, plus a car rack if you need one.
Rates →
Know the water. Respect the water. Then enjoy the hell out of it.

Reserve Gear04 — The island
Hilo is rain and rivermouths. Kona is clear and deep. Waikoloa is warm and forgiving. Tell us where you are staying and we will tell you where to go that day.
