Beautiful views, great instructors and team overall - Such a great experience from start to finish! I was nervous coming into this but Luke was super patient, encouraging, and knowledgeable. The whole team was super friendly and even gave tips on how to improve. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to learn. This will forever be a core memory - Thank you O’hana crew!

Amazing and fun surfing lesson - Amazing lesson! I have never surfed before and all the instructors, including my instructor Miguel, were patient, while providing great direction. I was able to surf quite a few waves and they even helped with taking me back out after each wave. I would highly suggest this lesson, whether you have experience or not, i felt completelysafe the entire time. Also, they seemed to accommodate people if they weren't strong swimmers either, just be sure to let them know! Don't forget to get the cool pictures and video!!

Great experience - My 9 year old daughter loves to surf when we come to Hawaii during the summer. I never thought of her taking a lesson when we were at Waikiki - but we signed her up for a private lesson and she loved it - so signed her up for a lesson the next day too (Elle was her instructor and great!) Professional, experienced and great photos! I felt comfortable with my daughter out in the water with the staff!

Excellent experience - They made my experience absolutely smooth and enjoyable. They had contacted me way in advance, answered all my questions, the pick up point was easy to find, all the stuff was friendly. My instructor Rolan (I’m sorry if I butchered the name) was helpful, interesting and easy to connect with. I absolutely loved the session and the experience as a whole. If I had more time here in Oahu, I would definitely go surfing with them.

Awesome! - This was an absolute blast. I've never surfed before, so I booked a private lesson. I appreciated the one-on-one instruction while with others who were taking group lessons. It meant I got some tips and guidance from other instructors too, and I loved that they took photographs which I was able to buy afterwards.

Wonderful Experience for 9 Year Old Son - This was our first time in Oahu and initially signed up for family surfing lessons. My son had such a wonderful time that we decided to schedule private surfing lessons for him before returning. Again, he had a blast. The instructor was very friendly and made my son feel at ease. We would highly recommend for kids.
