Best time with Surf HNL - We had the best time with Surf HNL. The staff were very helpful, enthusiastic and patient. They took extra time to explain everything and how to stand up on the surfboard prior to getting into the water. The waves were larger than average for this time of the year, but the staff helped us get past the breaking waves. We paid for two hour, but we only had energy for one hour of surfing. They offered to refund us for the second hour, which I found extremely honest. We declined the refund. They earned it with all of their help

Surfing with Surf HNL - Yes, please! - The team at Surf HNL are amazing! We had a group of four - my husband, two teenagers and a 10yr old. All four loved the surfing class with Namaka and his team. They were patient, friendly, and professional. I would highly recommend taking a class with Surf HNL. Bonus - the meeting point is close to Ko Olina / Aulani.

Fun surf lessons on Eisenhower Beach - My 16 yr old daughter took a private lesson. This was the 3rd time she's surfed. She said the instructor was good, and the area where they surf is pretty shallow, so she wasn't afraid to fall off the board. The people working there are all friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!

Awesome and Private surf lesson! - We had an amazing time learning to surf! The lesson was brief but really helped us learn how to get out there and be successful. It’s an arm workout, but the instructors are really good at helping you out. An hour was the perfect amount of time for us. The beach was very local and private, we were able to leave our bags at their tent and had a carefree time!! Thanks so much!!

Aweso - Just a top-notch, excellent group. My family had a fantastic experience. They were great with my younger kids, age 9 and 11 and my teenagers had a ball as well. My wife loved it, cannot say enough great things about this group. They also took amazing pictures and emailed them to us. Outstanding surfing experience. Just awesome!!!

Never to late to learn - I had a great time learning to surf. The team was very friendly. They gave plenty of information and displayed proper techniques. Being the old guy in the group was a bit intimidating ( 50 year old) but my instructor was very patient with me. I was very pleased with my first time surfing.
