    Best surfing lessons we have had

    Beyond 5 stars. Very knowledgeable. Got us up on the boards quickly and often. Well worth the money. And the optional purchase of professional photos was amazing.

    Response from the operator: Aloha, Mahalo for sharing your experience! We look forward to surfing with you all again soon. A hui hou, Aloha nō

    Keoke was a super chill and patient instructor. Went through all of the basics and explained the “why” behind each step. Had a ton of fun and we all were able to get up on our boards and maximize surf time.

    Great instructor

    My college age kids had a great time. They never surfed before, but caught quite a few waves in a short amount of time. The instructor was very positive and fun. They loved that he was so authentic- no show, just teaching them how to enjoy surfing. We felt very lucky to find him on Viator.

    Response from the operator: Aloha Mahalo for sharing your experience look forward to taking you all surfing again soon. A hui hou Aloha no!

    Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Maui.

    How much does Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui cost?

    +

    Prices start at $129 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Maui usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Maui is not rushed.

    Is Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Maui, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui?

    +

    Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Maui can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Maui and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Hawaiian-owned and Operated Surf Lessons in Kihei, Maui start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Maui within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Maui?

    +

    Maui's three signature days are the Hana road, the Haleakala summit sunrise and the Molokini snorkel sail, and all three are logistics problems as much as experiences. Sunrise summit entry is permit-controlled, Hana is a ten-hour driving day, and Molokini boats vary wildly in size. Our ranking rewards operators who handle permits and keep boat capacity low. On Outty we rank every Maui experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Molokini Crater + South Maui Coast Adventure from Kihei, Maui, Maui: VIP Private Road to Hana Tour with Pick Up, West Maui Snorkeling Experience by Boat from Ka'anapali. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Maui?

    +

    April to May and September to October. Whale season runs December to April. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Maui?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
