About
Our Paddle Board Lessons are taught on the beaches and waters off of Kalama Park in Kihei, Maui. This is a great place to learn to paddleboard, due to the calm water and slow break of the waves with an average year-round water temp of 78° — It’s just awesome…Lots of Hawaiian green sea turtles to hang out with.
SUP lessons are 1.5 hours in length and include everything you need for the water.
*All Equipment Included.
*Our professional instructors are CPR & First Aid certified.
*Classes are scheduled at 8 am & again at 10:00 am, (The best time to surf in Hawaii is early morning before the tradewinds come in!).
*No lessons on Sundays or public Holidays.
*You DO need to reserve your spot in advance.
*Private and semi-private lessons are available.
MINIMUM AGES: Minimum age for the Mixed-Adult Group Lesson is 12 years. Younger kids should do private or semi-private lessons. Families have a blast surfing together in our semi-private lessons!!
Make surfing the highlight of your island stay!!
*We also have a professional photographer to capture the proof of your new surfing skills. Photo packages are sold separately.
We're also very Proud to be a partner with Make-A-Wish Hawaii, and we teach some great little kiddos the Joy of surfing!
