Surf lessons. North shore vs Waikiki

[Sydnerella]

My son (10) and husband did lessons in Waikiki with 'Ohana Surf Project. After being there for 12 days and doing so many things, they both say this was their favorite activity of the trip! Neither had ever touched a surfboard before.

I’m glad to hear that! My husband and daughter are having a lesson this August with them.

Thanks for your reviews - I am booking my 18 and 15 year old kids with them this July based on this and the research i did after seeing your endorsement. Im wondering how long a lesson your families did? We are debating one or two hours…

They are both in very good shape - esp. legwise - as they play soccer spring through fall and my daughter is also a dancer. Neither are super beefy, but they are lean and all muscle. Not much upper body strength but decent core as they do like to paddleboard and swim.

Unsure the right amount of lesson time. Thanks for your insights!

We are booking at 2pm on a Sunday.

My husband and son did a 2 hour lesson. They had to book the family lesson due to my sons age.

At that age, I’d do two hours. They sound conditioned enough to handle it, and they’ll want to keep riding! Of course, some companies will let you keep your board for some time after your lesson, so an hour lesson and time with a board on their own might work too. I’d ask if they do that.

We did surfs up HI on Eisenhower beach which was only 15 mins from Aulani. We liked it. For you get kids, they made us do private lessons (1:1) but that was good for my kids.

We've used them 3 times and had a great time each and every time. Also, Eisenhower Beach is awesome!
