Our family decided to do this the morning before we departed from Hawaii. We made a reservation ahead of time for 0800. You meet at their shop on Koa Ave. where they give you an overview of surfing, in general, and then you walk over to the beach. They were thorough and stayed out in the water with my family the entire time. They did have a photographer come over as well and had pictures available for purchase. I was surprised that you had to buy all the pictures as a package (i.e., more expensive). I have a decent zoom lens on my camera so I had taken pictures, also, but I may have purchased one or two of theirs, but we did not need the entire set for the extra cost. The overall experience was wonderful - with their instruction, my teenagers were surfing within the first five minutes in the water.
