Kapowui has been recognized as the best surf school in Venice Beach for the past seven years.

As a family-operated business, Kapowui is a Southern California icon.

We live, breathe, and dream surfing, teaching it to share our passion and excitement for the sport. Surfing is our lifestyle and what gives our lives purpose.

All of Kapowui’s instructors embody the Aloha spirit, reside just blocks from the beach (with four living in surf vans), surf daily, and bring years of teaching experience.

During your lesson, we are fully present and focused on you.

At Kapowui, your experience truly matters to us.

Whether surfing is a one-time bucket list item or a new hobby you want to pursue, we guarantee you’ll be riding waves! Plus, you’ll be immersed in surf culture, giving you a chance to experience the true surfer vibe while learning a lifelong skill.
