Jonah and Nico were a great team!! Jonah was my surf instructor and he went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable! Even with the weather conditions being unfavorable I was able to catch a wave! 🌊 Thank you team! If you come to Hawaii and want to surf then you want Surf HNL!

Best time with Surf HNL

Michael V • Family

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.”

First Time Surfing - Amazing Experience

Brandon W • Solo

Great experience. They give a brief instruction on the beach and then each member of your party gets an instruction who goes out with them. Got me up on my first try and just about every wave I attempted, was very surprised. Everyone was super friendly and you could tell they just love what they do. Highly recommend if you want to try surfing for the first time.”
