Best part of Maui was surfing - Amazing! The best part of our trip to Maui was learning to surf. Nick and Reef were amazing. They were great kind, patient, and gave great feedback. By the third wave we were up and standing! Overall, it was simply fantastic! We will definitely be back.

Awesome surf coach - Great surfing experience! If you pay attention to what he tells you on the beach it makes it easy in the water. Stood up on the first wave. It was so much fun and I would definitely do it again. Clear instructions on where to meet. It was a great time and he’s a great teacher! 🏄🏼‍♀️🏄🏼‍♀️

Solo Beginner Surfer - Great lesson! If you’re going solo, don’t worry, this is a great surf lesson to do. Great for beginners. I just wish there was a photographer to capture us on the water—those pictures would be so cool!

Skip the concierge and book direct!!! Awesome! - Amazing surf lessons! Both my kids were beginners ((12/10yo)) and loved it. Attentive and thorough staff; entire group was riding waves by second try if not first wave caught. Absolutely would book tours and lessons again with ISA!

DO NOT BOOK!!! - Tour operator was a no show, and has not answered the phone. I called a week before the lesson to confirm, I should have cancelled and switched then because he was rude on the phone.
