Overview

Learn to surf on this 2-hour group lesson on Oahu.  Join a group of students and discover how to ride the waves like some of the Island's most famous celebrities with the help of a certified, professional instructor.  We have small student to instructor ratio of 1 instructor for every 3-4 students.  Waikiki Surf Lesson starts a 10 minute safety slide show inside our surf shop, followed by heading to the beach and practicing on the sand for another 10 minutes.  In our 20 year experience, we know that surfing is muscle memory, so when first timers master their surf stance then they tend to get up on their very first wave.

Meeting points

Please check in at the surf shop 20 - 30 minutes prior to activity which is located at Queen Kapiolani Hotel Lobby Surf Shop

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

The perfect option for beginning your surfing career. Participants must be at least 14 years old and if you want to join a group lesson but are visiting on your own we’ll ABLE TO SWIM and paddle back to the instructor

Great Spontaneous Surf Activity

Published on Jan, 2025

Our surfing lesson was great! Our instructor, Seth, made us feel safe and ready to catch some waves. We also really enjoyed the beach we were at, with great views of diamond head. We would definitely recommend our early morning weekday session as beginners, which ensured a pretty empty beach and gave plenty of ocean to ride.

Had a great time learning to surf. We had an amazing instructor, Seth. We all exceed our own expectations and were all able to get up on the board and even caught a few waves on our own. Highly recommend arriving early so that you have time to change into the rash guard and shoes and watch the safety video and still get your full time to surf. We all agreed it was the highlight of our trip!

Amazing experience

Published on Jan, 2025

Wonderful experience. Pete was an amazing teacher, he helped me to understand the ocean so I could stay safe and catch a wave! He was very patient and encouraging. I wish I would have tried surfing much earlier, but it felt pretty amazing to be up on a board in my late 40’s! Thanks so much. I plan to come back next time I’m on the island and will definitely recommend Viator.

Great instructor and experience. Especially Nico!!! Definitely would recommend this company for the price and what you get. Highlight of my trip

Kind knowledgeable and so very helpful

Published on Jan, 2025

The staff in the store was very kind and helpful, and the instructors were very helpful and knowledgeable. My wife got her leash stuck on coral and was scared for a bit but Keaton went under the water to untangle her safely and gently encouraged her to keep going and we both had a great time. Very very happy and appreciative of the entire situation, and thankful that they took care of my wife. Highly recommend. My only stipulation is the prices for the pictures were far too high for us to pay for the package, $140 for two people was out of our price range
