As people who are newer to surfing, my sister and I had the best time and felt so taken care of by our surf instructor, Liam! The water was pretty rough and yet we still felt so safe and supported out there to improve and catch tons of waves. I'd recommend Kapowui to anyone who's looking to get trained in the fundamentals and supported to work on their skills to be independent.. or honestly, just for a really fun time!!

I signed up for 3 lessons. I was paired with Liam. I had surfed one time when I was a teenager, but I knew nothing about the board, feet location, and most importantly the “pop-up”!! Liam is a great teacher and he went through the fundamentals and also talked a lot about the sea, tides, waves. On my first lesson I was able to catch multiple waves with Liam positioning me and pushing me. I did the pop-up and rode the waves to the shore. On the second lesson, Liam went over the fundamentals again, and we spent more time in the water. His guidance gave me the courage to paddle and catch the waves, I lost count on how many times I was able to get up, but I did have three amazing rides. Needless to say, I got bit by the surfing bug. I have my 3rd lesson already booked!! I highly recommend Kapowui Surf Lessons!!! So grateful I did this for me!!
