• 2699 Kalākaua Ave - Jump on the Surf School Bus and we will get you from wherever you’re staying in Waikiki to the beach and up and riding! We offer a complimentary courtesy shuttle. Our knowledgeable staff will meet you at one of our convenient hotel pick-up locations. You’ll be stoked to ride in our air-conditioned, clean, easy-to-spot yellow Surf School Bus or white shuttle with our logo on the side. After our friendly staff introduce themselves, we will shuttle you to our Ohana Surf Center located in the Waikiki Beach Marriott. From there you will get checked-in, geared up and then will be shuttled to the beach for Bodyboarding!

Once by the ocean, you will meet your instructor and talk about your previous experience, swimming strength or any other concerns or conditions, then we’ll have you walk your high quality lesson boards to the beach. When you’re comfortable and ready, we leash ourselves to the board, put on our fins and into the water we go!

After the lesson, you’ll be taken back to the Ohana Surf Center where you can check out photographs, videos, or buy some merch for yourself or friends. Then after your purchases are made, we drive you back to one of our convenient drop off locations.

At Ohana Surf Project, we view our customers as members of our extended family, going above and beyond to ensure superior service to each individual who chooses to navigate the waves with us, along with their supportive friends and family. We possess a burning passion for surfing and specialize in three diverse methods of teaching you to sail smoothly on the water: surfing, stand up paddleboarding, and bodyboarding. Our committed staff, having substantial experience in this industry, are among the most skillful instructors. We take immense pride in what we do and work in harmony as a team and family to make our learners feel secure, relaxed, and accomplished.

Our primary focus is on SAFETY! All our instructors and guides are professional, trained in safety practices (CPR, lifeguard, first aid) and affable.

We eagerly await the opportunity to welcome you into our family and showcase to you the warm, friendly aloha spirit that keeps us all in Hawaii– relishing life and good companionship, respecting the ‘aina (our Mother Earth), engaging in fun activities and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
