    Surfing with Jedi at Maui Surfer Girls in Lahaina

    Jedi was super supportive and got me up on the surfboard in no time. I honestly didn't think it was possible due to issues with my knees. He was very patient with me and cheered me on every step of the way. It was an amazing experience and I learned so much about the geography of the ocean, the etiquette of surfing and most especially the Zen of being at one with the ocean. Thank you, Jedi!

    Surf's up, thumbs up!

    I have never surfed before and truly had a blast! Dan was a phenomenal instructor and helped me feel comfortable and confident on the water. By the end of the lesson, I was surfing slightly bigger and faster waves! Kiki the photographer also captured exceptional photos during the lessons. Thank you Maui Surfer Girls for a wonderful experience and the great work you do in the community!

    Amazing!

    We had such a wonderful experience with Maui Surf Girls! My husband and I had a semi private lesson with Dan and we both got up on so many waves! Our daughter had a private lesson doing tandem surfing with Natalie and she was so proud of herself and stood up over and over again. I was very impressed with the entire process from learning about where to catch the waves and swim back to being out on the water. The care for safety (especially for our child) and the environment was clear. I can’t say enough positive things about our experience with Natalie and Dan. Thank you so much!!!

    Helpful and worth the money!

    We had a great time and it was very informative with our coaches to learn to surf as a family. We had so much fun and Andrew, Lily, and Jedi were really helpful.

    Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches cost?

    +

    Prices start at $245 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 Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches 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 Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 42 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 Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches?

    +

    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 Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches 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 Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches?

    +

    Around 15 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 Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches 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, Road to Hana Adventure Maui Tour with Lunch, 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.

    What is included in Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches?

    +

    Included: Long sleeve rash guards, and booties; Longboards, both soft and hardtops; and Experienced Coaches. Not included: Gratuity for your instructor. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches?

    +

    You will see our white pick up truck with a large Maui Surfer Girls logo on the highway side, parked along the highway. Park near our truck on the Lahaina-side of Ukumehame Park. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Private 2 hour Surf Lessons with Experienced Coaches if the weather is bad?

    +
