1 instructor for each student in a private lesson.

Private surf lessons are for a person who wants individualized attention and isn’t interested in sharing his/her waves with others:). There are many reasons why someone would request a private lesson: (A) He/she is not comfortable in the water, (B) He/she took a lesson before and wants to go for bigger waves, (C) He/she wants the focus of the instructor and does not want to wait for other people to catch a wave before his/her next wave, and (D) He/she is a child below 13 years old and is unable to paddle back after each wave and therefore needs a personal instructor for safety reasons.

Great afternoon with Shane and Captain Neil! These guys are truly pros. Enthusiastic and passionate about what they do, they gladly assessed our skill level for all three activities before helping us to thoroughly enjoy the adventure! Had not attempted surfing in more than 10 years (and not getting any younger), Shane gave great instruction and feedback…the result being able to ride a few waves which was lots of fun. My wife floated face to face with the biggest turtle either of us had ever seen!! The guys were very flexible with the amount of time we spent on each activity and made us feel special! Would highly recommend for a fun time on the water.

BOOK THIS!! We booked a couple of different activities, and this was our favorite BY FAR!! Shane and Captain Neil were AMAZING! My husband and I had a great time learning to surf and caught some good waves!! I almost backed out because I am #1, not a confident swimmer, and #2, not exactly a fit person, but Shane and Captain Neil made this experience so great. They were super knowledgeable, safe, and patient with us. They don't take on more students then they can handle so we got a one on one experience. Both instructors have so much experience you are truly in the best of hands! Seriously, book this, you won't regret it!!

Must do in honolulu! Shane and Captain Neil were very experienced teachers who got me and my friend with no experience to surf within 10 minutes! They were very clear and patient when teaching us and we felt comfortable the whole time. We got to surf really good waves and really enjoyed our experience, definitely recommend :)

Best surf lessons in Waikiki hands down I scheduled a one-on-one surf lesson for my son and for my husband to go with him. Shane was super communicative before we even got to the island and we chatted and got info before the boys went out. I didn’t hear anything until after the lesson when my so and husband got back and boy were they pumped!!! My son is 6 and he had the Best time with Shane and Neil. Waikiki is the best beach for beginners and the boys were so relaxed with the conditions and the area- they even saw a couple turtles! Shane said they had another opening while we were there and we jumped at the chance to all go out. I went out on the kayak with my 4yo daughter to take pictures of them surfing and the boys got to work on their skills again. My son even got to go by himself a couple times! Besides being great teachers- Shane and Neil are sweet as can be and relaxing and accommodating. 10 out of 10 recommend 💫🤙🏼

Kayak & snorkeling Shane & Neil were excellent guides! We launched from the beautiful Waikiki area. They both are very knowledgeable at techniques and where to go, guiding the group to a short yet energetic location. Once there we put our masks and snorkels on and began seeing so many beautiful fish of the Island. And an added plus was seeing not just one turtle, but a few!! It was a fantastic time and created an endearing memory. Thank you, Shane and Neal!!

Great teachers, great time Shane and Captain Neil were amazing teachers. They were knowledgeable, patient, and overall great people. We went with zero experience with surfing but after 10-15 minutes with them me and my girlfriend had it down and we went and rode some waves. We went snorting and kayaking after, we saw turtles, and schools of fishes. Amazing time, definitely will do again if we’re back in Honolulu. I highly recommend them!

Great Trip with Shane! Shane was a very knowledgeable guide and super friendly! He took us snorkeling and we even got to see a swimming sea turtle! Afterwards we visited great local food truck, shaved ice, and macademia nuts. We topped off the trips with views of island that were breathtaking. Would recommend to any friends and family!
