What To Expect

At our company, we strive to provide the best surfing lessons for visitors to Waikiki. The lesson begins with a thorough land lesson, covering essential topics such as safety, proper positioning on the board, and paddling techniques. We use top-of-the-line surfboards provided by Moku Surf Shop and walk to the nearby beach to get into the water and start our lesson. We surf together as a group, allowing beginners to feel comfortable and confident as they learn. Paddling and surfing can be an excellent workout, so we encourage visitors to drink plenty of water and come hydrated. All you need to bring is a swimsuit, as we provide all other necessary equipment. Surfing is an incredible experience that is both exhilarating and fun, and we are excited to share this adventure with you!

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private Surfing Lessons in Waikiki?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

Cool Hawaii wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Hawaii over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
