Kazuma, Kazuma, Kazuma! :.) - Ask for Kazuma and you’ll be left "me ka mahalo nui loa"—with so much gratitude! Kazuma is the perfect instructor. It honestly felt like surfing with a supportive friend who just happens to be an expert. I joined a small family session on a Tuesday, and ended up booking a second solo session just hours before my flight home two days later. At 43, I had never even come close to touching a surfboard, but I left Maui feeling confident, comfortable, and inspired to keep going. Thanks to Kazuma’s guidance, I feel well equipped to carry this momentum forward and take my surfing to the next level. I HIGHLY, and without reservation, recommend booking with him—whether it’s private, semi-private, or both. You won’t regret it!

Surfing in Kihei - My 5 children, ages 8-17 did a surf lesson during our trip and it was great. They had their lesson with Surf Daddy and he was great with the kids and had some incredible life lessons all based on the ocean and surfing and how it all translates to life, loved his spirit! We felt that they were given great instruction and were safe during their lesson. It was fun watching them all get better throughout the lesson. Several of them said it was their favorite thing they did on Maui.

Really fun and helpful instruction! - As somebody who needed a surfing refreshers, I had a great time during my private surf lesson. Eddy was a fantastic instructor. He got me back up to speed and helped me with my technique. He also made sure that I had the opportunity to catch a lot of waves; I felt like my surfing really improved and that I had a lot of fun.

Surfing in Hawaii. What a thrill! - I had an amazing morning on the water with George. As a 60 something first time surfer I was a little nervous but George took away any nervousness and gave me all the tips I needed. Got up surfing on my second try. Thank you George and Maui Wave Runners for a thrill I have always wanted to experience. Rob

Great experience for an old guy first time surfer! - My visit was very organized from the moment I arrived. At age 78, and having never tried surfing, I scheduled a two hour private lesson. My instructor, George, was first rate. He took the time I needed to cover the basics before we hit the water. He was patient and encouraging throughout the lesson. He was interested in me as a person, not just another paying customer. I highly recommend Maui Wave Riders!

Worth every penny! - Our son (16 YO) had his first surf lesson with Sol (sp?) and he had an amazing experience. He felt supported and fell in love with surfing, thanks to her support, experience and her own love for the sport. Would definitely recommend Sol and Maui Waveriders to anyone wanting to learn to surf in Maui.

First timer - My Daughter took a private surf lesson with Ben. He was friendly, knowledgeable and fun. Promised she’d catch a wave first day and she did. Definitely recommend Ben and wave riders.
