We had the best time during our lesson. Our instructor, Brooks, was there to each but also there to just let us have a good time out on the water. We had a calm clear morning and the beach at Kalama park was not overcrowded. I would definitely use them again! All of the staff were fun and friendly to be around.

My daughters had a great time, and we got great pictures. I do wish the location wasn’t so full. The number of times they were run into by adults in other groups was high.

Eddie and Hadley were excellent with my whole family. Kids 6&9 were up surfing on the first wave! Highly recommended.

Eddie was soooo patient and knowledgeable. If he can get me surfing a wave he can get anyone to. We had so much fun taking this lesson and would highly recommend.

Eddie and crew are too notch. Our 2 14 year old girls went the first day and loved it so much, they convinced my wife and I to join them the next day. I was suspicious, but Eddie got this 50+ year old up and surfing the first time. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone of any age.

We had a wonderful experience learning to surf with Eddie. But I would be remiss if I didn’t note that his wife reached out the week prior due to the weather forecast and proactively moved our lesson up. Neither myself or my son (12) had surfed before and to be honest - I was nervous! Eddie put my fears at ease (my son had no fears!) and taught us basic steps on land and then we were off to the water to catch some waves and hopefully get up on our boards. My son took off first wave - easy up and he was a champ the entire time. Eddie even taught him how to do a 180 which he executed flawlessly. I was up on my 3rd run and with that - a surfing bug was caught and I know my son and I will definitely be back when in Maui to take more lessons. Thank you, Eddie, for the patience, lessons and helping us learn a new skill. Mahalo!
